Question

A boy is toppled over while running. Explain why

Open in App
Solution

The friction from the ground stopped the movement of his legs but his body kept on moving forward as per newtons first law of motion on inertia.
This caused the upper body to come forward hence resulting in the boy toppling over.

Hope this help :)
