Question

a person getting down from the moving bus falls in the direction of motion of the bus. Why?

Answer 1

Explanation:

A person getting down from the moving bus falls in the direction of motion of the bus. This is due to Newton's first law of motion. First law of motion is called as law of inertia.

This law states that an object will be at rest and an object will be in motion unless an external force applied to it. Due to this reason, a person getting down from the moving bus falls in the direction of motion of the bus.

Answer 2

Answer:

A passenger getting down from a moving bus, falls in the direction of the motion of the bus. This is because his feet come to rest on touching the ground and the remaining body continues to move due to inertia of motion
