Brief Explanations
Newton's First Law, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. When the car stops suddenly, the passenger's body, which was in motion, wants to continue moving forward due to inertia.
