Correct Answer: inertia of motion
Solution : The correct option is inertia of motion.
Due to the concept of inertia of motion, passengers in a moving car tend to lean forward when it comes to a quick halt. Inertia is an object's tendency to resist changes in its state of motion. When the automobile comes to an abrupt halt, the passengers, who were previously going at the same pace as the car, continue to keep moving owing to inertia.
