Answer:

The correct answer is inertia.

Explanation:

The heavy bag of groceries is initially within the inertia frame of the car. This indicates that the heavy bag acquires the same speed as the car.

When the car stops, the heavy bag continues to move forward with the speed it had due to the principle of inertia, which states the property that the bodies cannot modify by themselves the state of rest or movement in which they are.

Have a nice day!

When an unbalanced force acts on an object the change in the objects ____or ____ depends on the size and direction of the force
timama [110]

When an unbalanced force acts on an object the change in the object state of rest or motion depends on the size and direction of the force.

If a body is at state of rest or motion, when an unbalanced external force acts on it, its starts moving in the direction of force and magnitude of its velocity or acceleration depends on the magnitude of force applied.
