Definition of Force Inertia and First Law: Practice Problem & Solution

In the motion picture 'It happened one night' (columbia pictures, 1934), Clark ceable in standing inside a stationary bus in front of the claudetle colbert, who is seated, the bus suddenly starts moving forward and clark fall into claudetters lap which of following explains this phenomena best :
Newton's first law (Inertia of rest)
Newton's second law
Newton's third law
None of these

Short Solution (Best for NEET):

To solve this problem, we apply the core principles of Definition of Force Inertia and First Law. Understanding the underlying formula is key to arriving at the correct answer below:

Due to inertia of rest clark want to remain at rest.
