The correct answer is inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. When you hit the brakes while driving, your body wants to keep moving forward due to its inertia. The seatbelt then stops you by applying a force in the opposite direction to your motion, preventing you from moving forward. To get the answer to this question, you need to understand the concept of inertia and how it relates to the motion of objects.
