Why does the man move forward as the bus suddenly stopped?

Ugh, don’t you hate that feeling? You’re on the bus, just chilling, maybe looking out the window or lost in your phone, and BAM! The bus slams on the brakes. You jerk forward, right? It’s like your body has a mind of its own. Why does that happen?

It’s this physics thing called inertia. Basically, your body wants to keep doing what it’s already doing. So, if you’re moving forward at, say, 30 miles an hour, your body kind of expects to keep moving forward at 30 miles an hour. The bus stopping? Yeah, your body doesn’t get the memo right away. Think of it like this: your feet, planted on the bus floor, they stop with the bus. But your upper body? It’s still trying to go forward. Hence the sudden lurch.

I remember once, I was standing on a packed bus going downtown – it was rush hour, super crowded – and the driver had to brake hard. I swear I almost flew into the person in front of me! It’s a good thing I managed to grab a pole, or it would have been a really awkward (and possibly painful) introduction. So, yeah, inertia. It’s not just a word in a textbook; it’s that annoying, sometimes scary, feeling you get on public transport!
