Our body opposes the motion of the bus due to inertia, which resists changes in its state of motion. These questions and answers cover the key concepts of inertia and its effects during the sudden braking of a car and the sudden start of a bus.

Our body opposes the motion of the bus when it starts suddenly due to inertia. As the bus accelerates, our body, initially at rest, resists the sudden change in motion and tends to remain in its original state. This resistance causes us to feel pushed backward as the bus moves forward, highlighting inertia’s role in opposing sudden changes in motion.
