Answer:
When a horse running fast suddenly stops, the rider is thrown forward, if he is not firmly seated. This is because the lower part of the rider's body, which is in contact with the horse, comes to rest while the upper part of his body tends to keep moving due to inertia of motion.

Answer:
the statement is true.
Explanation:
the reason is Newton's law of inertia or First law of motion.
As body tends to be in its original state when the horse suddenly stops, the lower part of rider stops with it but upper part remains in motion. So, rider falls forward.
