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.
Which law applies when a person is thrown forward in a bus when the brakes are suddenly pressed?
law of inertia
A passenger standing in a fully loaded bus which is at rest tends to move backward when the driver suddenly starts the bus?
If the bus moves forward, yes
Why a passenger standing in a fully loaded bus which is at rest tends to move backward when the driver suddenly starts the bus?
This is what we call "Inertia of Rest" The upper portion remains at rest though the feet attached to the bus starts moving. So relatively the head has to go back as it lags. So he falls backward. By holding the rod above the head with a grip the passenger pulls his head forward so as to avoid falling back. As the bus moves with uniform motion then whole body will be in motion. Same way as the driver applies brake and brings the bus to rest, the passenger falls forward. This is due to "intertia of motion"
When a bus suddenly stop why passenger move forward?
this is because of the law of inertia
Disadvantage of First law of Newton's?
When the bus driver applies brakes suddenly, the passengers move forward on account of inertia.

Why are passengers thrown backward when a driver suddenly stepson the break to avoid hitting another car?
Actually you are thrown forward.
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...
When a train moves forward the passengers standing in the compartments tends to fall backward why?
Because Michael Jackson wants you too....... >:)
What happens to the pasengers sitting in a train when it suddenly stops?
The passengers, and everything else will keep going forward until restrained or impacting something.
When a running car stops suddenly the passengers tends to lean forward because of?
This happens because an object in motion tends to stay in motion
When you are standing up in a subway train and the train suddenly stops your body continues to go forward What law?
Gravity maybe?
How do you use flying in a sentence?
When the bus suddenly stopped, several standing riders went flying forward. I enjoy flying a kite.
Are seated passengers in a boat moving compared to the boat?
yes, the boat is traveling at the same speed as the passengers. when the boat accelerates or decelerates the passengers accelerate or decelerate as well. EX: If a boat that is going 50mph suddenly crashes into a cliff sideand stops short the passengers are still traveling at 50mph which is why they will fly forward to there deaths
