Answer 1

Answer:

Its all about Inertia,which resist a state of change

Explanation:

As we jump inertia causes that we run for a while

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Because the body of the passenger (upper and the lower parts of the body) inside the bus is in the state of motion with the moving bus.

On stepping down , as soon as the feet touch the ground , the lower part of our body comes to rest and the upper part still remains in the state of motion due to inertia of motion. That's why the passenger falls down or is thrown backwards in the direction of motion of the moving bus.

TO AVOID FALLING, THE PASSENGER MUST RUN IN THE DIRECTION OF THE OT MOTION OF THE BUS AS SOON AS HIS FEET TOUCH THE GROUND.
