correct answer only

Answer 1

The correct answer is inertia.

Explanation: When you hit the brakes while driving, your body tends to keep moving forward due to its inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. In this case, while the car decelerates (slows down), your body wants to continue moving forward at the same speed. The seatbelt stops your body from moving further, providing the necessary restraint to prevent you from being thrown forward. So, your body moving forward before the seatbelt stops you is an example of inertia.
