Passengers which are facing forward in the direction that train is moving, their bodies will move forward in application of sudden stop of train.

<h3>What is force of inertia?</h3>

Force of inertia is the force which acts in the opposite direction of the force of acceleration acting on the body.

Given infroamtion-

The passengers are facing forward in the direction that the train is moving.

The train comes to a sudden stop.

Lets see what happens step wise-

  • Here, the train in moving in the forward direction and the passengers are also facing forward in the direction that the train is moving.

  • Now the train comes to a sudden stop. By this sudden stop the train stops suddenly but all the object including the passengers is still travelling forward due to the inertia force.

  • Thus all the passenger will tend to move in the direction as they are still travelling.

Hence, passengers which are facing forward in the direction that train is moving, their bodies will move forward in application of sudden stop of train.
