Question

Why it is difficult to balance our body when we acciodentally step on a peel of a banana ?

Answer 1

When we walk on the ground, our foot pushes the ground in the backward direction (action) and the ground pushes our foot in the forward direction( reaction) . This reaction helps us to move forward. But when our feet fall on a peel of banana, the peel cannot push the ground in the backward direction. Consequently, no reaction force acts on our foot and we lose our balance.
