Also why aren’t we constantly sucked back into our chairs like when u accelerate in a car quickly?
In:
Probably the most fundamental of all the laws of physics is:
Force = Mass * Acceleration
Acceleration, not speed. So, if you are in a car that accelerates, the seat pushes against your back in order to accelerate you, which you feel as a force on your body. But once you and the car have reached a constant “cruising speed”, and nothing accelerates any more, there are also no longer any forces involved.
