A child standing on a bus remains still when the bus is at rest. When the bus moves forward and then slows down, the child continues moving forward at the original speed. This is an example of
A) an action-reaction pair.
B) Newton's Third Law of Motion.
C) Newton's First Law of Motion.
D) Newton's Second Law of Motion.
Answer (1)
The scenario is an example of Newton's First Law of Motion, where the child continues moving forward due to inertia when the bus slows down. This demonstrates the principle that an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external force. Therefore, the answer is option C. ;
