When a bus suddenly takes a turn, the passengers are thrown outwards because of

AInertia of motion
BAcceleration of motion
CSpeed of motion
DBoth (b) and (c)

Solution

(a) According to law of inertia of motion a body will continue moving with constant velocity until unless any force is acting on it when a bus is moving straight the passengers inside are also moving straight but when suddenly bus turn left passengers still continue to move straight because no force is acting on passengers so they will move with same magnitude and direction i.e. outwards when bus turns.
