Question

which of newtons laws explains why a seatbelt is important in a car? a newtons third law b newtons second law c newtons first law

Explanation:

Newton's first law, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object in motion will stay in motion and an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by an external force. In a car, when there is a sudden stop or collision, a person's body will tend to continue moving forward due to inertia. A seat - belt provides an external force to stop the person's body from moving forward and potentially hitting the dashboard or other objects, thus protecting the person.

Answer:

C. Newton's first law
