If we are standing in bus and the conductor applies a brake, we feel:
Correct answer: B. Pseudo force pushes forwards
- A. Pseudo force pushes backwards
- B. Pseudo force pushes forwards
- C. Real force pushes backwards
- D. Real force pushes forwards
Explanation
The nonexistent force that is felt pushing one forward when a car breaks only exists within a non-inertial frame of reference. The force is felt due to inertia. the direction is due to the mass still being in motion and inertia keeping it so

About Newton's Laws of Motion
Newton’s laws explain inertia, the relation between net force and acceleration, and action-reaction pairs. Questions involve free-body diagrams, balanced and unbalanced forces, F = ma, force as the rate of change of momentum, and identifying genuine third-law pairs, which act on different bodies.
