They continue on their path but the car slows down. It's more like the car moves back.

Explain how inertia affects the passengers when a bus starts suddenly?
Inertia affects passengers on a bus when it starts suddenly by giving them a jolt and causing the passengers to move forward or backward depending on the buses position.
Why won't a 2001Sephia move forward or backward all of a sudden?
The engine mite hav some problems
Why should a passengers hold on to prevent himself from a swaying in a turning bus?
the passengers should hold on to the bus so that their upper part of the body also comes in contact with the bus as the lower part (feet), as the bus moves forward , backward , sideways or if it stops there wont be any change in the passenger's body's inertia. and the passengers will move as the bus does.
When a car stops suddenly the passengers tend to move forward relative to their seats Why?
When car was moving, passengers were also moving. When car suddenly stops, the moving passengers try to maintain their state of forward motion because of their inertia. so they move forward relative to their seats...
Disadvantage of First law of Newton's?
When the bus driver applies brakes suddenly, the passengers move forward on account of inertia.
Some people say that the force of inertia throws the passengers forward when when the a car brakes sharply What is wrong with this explanation?
There is no such thing as "force of inertia". The passengers are thrown forward, maintaining their initial motion. This is an application of Newton's First Law, which states that an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon a force. The force of the car brake is acted upon the car and not on the passengers. This is why the passengers continue to move forward for a second when the car stops.

Why is it to important to wear seatbelt in a car in relation to forces and motion?
Newton 3rd law says for every action of force there is an equal and opposite reaction. When a car stops suddenly the passengers want to move opposite toward the windshield so the seat belts prevent this.
What part of your body helps you walk?
There are many parts of the body that help you walk. First you have to move your hip, then it comes to the knee to move forward, then its the foot that simply has to do its move frontward.
What is something that always moves forward?
A bookperson. Time doesn't move forward. Time is. People move forward or regress. Bookpeople learn, grow and always move forward.
What does resurgamus mean?
Resurgamus means 'to move forward'. Resurgamus means 'to move forward'.
How are passengers living examples of Newton's First Law of Motion?
consider passengers in a moving bus. initially when the bus was at rest,the passengers were also at rest with respect to the bus.but when the bus starts moving or accelerating,passengers tend to move backward and finally when the bus stops,the passengers tend to move forward.this is newton's first law.
