    Objects tend to remain at rest due to inertia, an inherent property of matter. When the motorcar stops suddenly, the passengers inside experience a change in velocity, causing their bodies to resist this change. This resistance is described by Newton’s first law of motion. Until the brakes are applied, the car and its occupants share the same forward velocity. When the brakes decelerate the car, the passengers’ inertia keeps them moving at the original speed. It’s only when the brakes apply a force opposite to the car’s motion that the passengers feel pushed forward, causing them to move relative to the car’s interior.

  3. When brakes are applied, a car undergoes deceleration. According to Newton's first law of motion, an object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force. In this case, the body insiRead more

    When brakes are applied, a car undergoes deceleration. According to Newton’s first law of motion, an object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force. In this case, the body inside the car, including its internal organs, is initially moving at the car’s speed. When the brakes are applied, the body resists a sudden change in motion, causing it to move forward relative to the decelerating car. This phenomenon is a manifestation of the body’s inertia.

  4. A sudden application of brakes can cause injury due to the inertia of our bodies. As the car decelerates rapidly, our bodies tend to remain in their state of motion, moving forward. The seatbelt restrains the torso, but the unrestrained head and neck may continue moving, leading to whiplash injuriesRead more

    A sudden application of brakes can cause injury due to the inertia of our bodies. As the car decelerates rapidly, our bodies tend to remain in their state of motion, moving forward. The seatbelt restrains the torso, but the unrestrained head and neck may continue moving, leading to whiplash injuries. Moreover, without proper restraint, occupants can collide with the dashboard, windshield, or other parts of the vehicle. The abrupt change in motion during a sudden stop can result in internal injuries as organs continue their forward motion. Proper use of seatbelts and gradual braking can help mitigate these risks.

    Safety belts are crucial for preventing injuries during sudden braking by applying the principles of physics. When brakes are applied abruptly, a vehicle decelerates, but due to inertia, occupants tend to maintain their forward motion. Safety belts restrain the torso, preventing occupants from being thrown forward. This minimizes the risk of head and chest injuries, reducing the impact force on vital organs. By securely holding individuals in their seats, safety belts ensure that they decelerate with the vehicle, helping to distribute the force of the sudden stop across more robust parts of the body and reducing the likelihood of severe injuries.
