Teddyber continue to move forward because Newton law 1. moving object continue to move until something external make it to stop. no seat belt on teddy ber so only dashboard can make her stop. same if people in car and no seatbelt.

Answer:

Due to inertia of motion teddy bear continue its motion and hit the car's dashboard

Explanation:

As per Newton's First law of motion we know that if there is no external force on an object then due to the property of inertia it continue its state of motion.

That is if an object is at rest then due to its inertia it will remain at rest while if the object is moving with some speed then due to inertia it will continue to be in motion with same speed.

So here since car is moving initial then the teddy bear is also moving with car in same speed now when Gina apply brakes then due to this force of brake the car will stop but there is no force on teddy bear so it has tendency to continue its motion due to which it moves in the same direction and hit on the dash board of car
