Question

Passengers sitting in a stationary car experience a jerk when the car suddenly starts. This is due to _____.

  1. Newton’s first law of motion
  2. Newton’s second law of motion
  3. Newton’s third law of motion
  4. More than 2 laws of motion

hintHint:

law of inertia

The correct answer is: Newton’s first law of motion


    This is due to Newton's first law of motion.
    When a stationary car starts suddenly, the passengers are jerked in the backward direction. Because when the car starts and moves suddenly in the forward direction from a state of of rest, the passengers experience a force exerted on them in the backward direction due to the inertia opposing the forward motion.
