4-1.Newton's Laws of Motion
easy

A girl jumps down from a moving bus, along the direction of motion of the bus, tilting slightly forward. She falls on $(a)$ a sheet of ice $(b)$ a patch of glue.

A

In both cases $(a)$ and $(b)$ she falls forward

B

In both cases $(a)$ and $(b)$ she falls backward

C

In case $(a)$ she falls forward and in case $(b)$ she falls backward

D

In case $(a)$ she falls backward and in case $(b)$ she falls forward

(NEET-2017)

Solution

Her leg becomes still at the patch of glue but her leg cannot move forward while her head moves forward due to inertia of motion. Hence, she falls forward.
