Its called inertia.

It takes work to stop an object that is moving,

if you don't have any (as in the cases mentioned), you keep on moving.

Because the skateboarder is going fast, and the board stops, the guy keeps going fast at the same speed and flies off.


What are examples of 2nd law of motion?

example:1An 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 unbalanced force. example:2Blood rushes from your head to your feet while quickly stopping when riding on a descending elevator.example:3The head of a hammer can be tightened onto the wooden handle by banging the bottom of the handle against a hard surface.example:4A brick is painlessly broken over the hand of a physics teacher by slamming it with a hammer. (CAUTION: do not attempt this at home!)example:5To dislodge ketchup from the bottom of a ketchup bottle, it is often turned upside down and thrusted downward at high speeds and then abruptly halted.Headrests are placed in cars to prevent whiplash injuries during rear-end collisions.example:6While riding a skateboard (or wagon or bicycle), you fly forward off the board when hitting a curb or rock or other object which abruptly halts the motion of the skateboard.

Why a person riding a bicycle fly forward off when hitting a rock explain on the basis of newton's first law?

Okay, so Newton's First Law of Motion states: 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 unbalanced force. Okay, so with that in mind, a cyclist is moving forward. The rock is large enough to stop the bicycle. However, the cyclist not being attached to the bicycle, will tend to stay in motion, lauching said cyclist over the handlebars.

It is a push. See you push it forward with the tennis racket, making it go forward, away from you. When you pull something, you're bringing it toward yourself. But when you hit a tennis ball, you push the ball away from you.
