A body at rest continues to be at rest underless some external force force is applied to move it. Rather, the body at rest opposes the force that tends to move it. Left to itself, the body at rest, will never start moving. This is well known property of inertia of rest of bodies, we study in Physics. ltRead carefully the above passage and answer the following questions:
(i) When a bus start moving suddenly, the passengers tend to fall backward. Why?
(ii) Give one more example of inertia of rest.
(iii) What values do you inculcate in life from this study?
