a ) is correct

Answer 2

Option A inertia is the right answer.

• Inertia is the tendency of an object to continue in its state of rest or motion.
• Here the coin was placed on the card.
• It was not moving, it is in rest.
• So when the card is pulled it tends to continue in the state of rest.
• So it is not moving with the card, but falling under the influence of gravity
