Q. When a moving train slows down quickly, will a passenger tend to fall backward or forward? Explain why?

A. The passenger will tend to fall forward because the lower portion of his body which is in contact with the seat will come to rest quickly whereas the upper portion of the body continues to be in a state of motion. Hence, the person is thrown forward.
