A stressed out Mom just purchased a cup of Starbucks coffee. The bus she is riding on to work goes around a sharp curve. Even though she holds the cup steady, the coffee still splashes out. Which word explains this phenomenon?(1 point)ResponsesFrictionFrictionDensityDensityGravityGravityInertia

Answer 1

The correct word that explains this phenomenon is Inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. In this case, the coffee continues to move in a straight line while the bus goes around the curve, causing it to spill.
