As the moment of inertia of several people are too high.....So when the driver puts break the inertia of motion is still in people.....So people collide with each other ..... which cause injury

Hello Bhargavi. It's a simple physics behind that.Every objects remains in rest or in uniform motion untill dusturbed by external forces.When bus is in motion ,our body is also in motion.When it stops our body tries to remain in motion and bcz of this our upper body remains in motion.

An elevator weighs 3000kg. What is its acceleration when the in the tension supporting cable is 33000N. Given that g = 9.8m/s2.
M = 3000 kg g = 9.8 m/s² T = 33000 a = ? Ma = Mg - T 3000 * a = 3000 * 9.8 - 33000 3000a = 29400 - 33000 3000a = - 3600 a = - 1.2 m/s².
