Slamming on the brakes in a moving car makes a passenger move forward against his or her seat belt because

• the passenger has the inertia to keep moving forward
• the passenger is being pushed by the seats of the car
• the passenger is better able to stop themselves in this manner
• the passenger has an equal and opposite force supporting their weight

How long will an object remain at rest, according to Newton's First Law of Motion?

• it can't rest
• until noon
• until an unbalanced force occurs
• as long as there are unbalanced forces acting on it 

You are holding a bowl of hot soup while standing in the kitchen. As you begin to move, the soup spills out of the bowl. Upon reflection you realize that

• the soup spilled because of air resistance
• if you had traveled faster this wouldn't have happened
• the soup wanted to stay where it was, but you moved the bowl
• the soup and the bowl act as one body with the same velocity
