Question

why do you fall in the forward direction when a moving bus brakes to a stop and fall backward when it accelerate from rest?​

Answer 1

Answer:

it's because of inertia of rest and inertia of motion , the 1st law of newton .

:In a moving bus, a passenger moves with the bus due to inertia of motion. As the driver applies brakes, the bus comes to rest. But, the passenger tries to maintain to inertia of motion. As a result, a forward force is exerted on him.

Similarly, the passenger tends to fall backwards when the bus accelerates from rest because when the bus accelerates, the inertia of rest of the passenger tends to oppose the forward motion of the bus. Hence, the passenger tends to fall backwards when the bus accelerates forward.

Answer 2

Answer:

We fall in forward direction because of 1 law of motion or Law of inertia which states that a body tends to be in same position .So if brakes are applied our body tends to be in motion so we fall in forward direction .And when it accelerates our body want to be in rest so we fall in backward direction !!!
