Why do you fall in the forward direction when a moving bus brake to a stop and fall backward when it accelerate from waste?

Why do you fall in the forward direction when a moving bus brake to a stop and fall backward when it accelerate from waste? When a moving bus breaks to a stop we fall in the forward direction due to inertia of motion and when the bus accelerates from rest, we fall in the backward direction due to inertia of rest.

What law of inertia happens when the bus suddenly stops?

And the bus stopped suddenly. I fell down. Because of Newton's Law of Inertia, which states: An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Why are buses so shaky?

A school bus is most likely to be bouncy due to the air suspension working as well the axle. Charter buses are air suspension but feel like you are air riding because the seats are raise higher from the suspension and the axle. This makes the bus ride more comfortable on long rides and when going on bumpy roads.

Why do you lurch backwards when a bus suddenly picks up speed?

When a bus abruptly starts moving, the passengers tend to slide backward due to inertia, as the passenger's inertia tends to oppose the bus's forward motion. Hence, the passenger tends to fall back when the bus accelerates forward.

What is the safest position to sit on a bus?

The middle Specifically, you should try to avoid the front and rear sections of the bus. Sitting in the middle gives you more protection during all types of crashes, including head-on and rear-end collisions. As far as the middle of the bus goes, your best bet is to sit in a row between the bus's tires.

Why do bus drivers idle?

Some drivers let the bus idle because they're worried customers won't like the heating or air-conditioning temporarily turning off (assuming the bus doesn't have idling reduction technology). But most of the time, the bus cabin will easily maintain a comfortable temperature for the time it takes to load and unload.

Why do people jerk in buses when bus moves forward?

Because the lower part of the body comes to rest with the bus while the upper part tends to continue its motion due to inertia.

What must we not do in a moving bus?

Stay in your seat and face forward: never stand on a moving bus. Keep noise level down and do not distract the driver (no yelling or shouting). Do not throw anything on the bus or out the window. Keep hands and feet to yourselves.
