HELP!! I NEED THIS ASAP!! When Jane drives to work, she always places her pocketbook on the passenger's seat. By the time she gets to work, her pocketbook has fallen on the floor in front of the passenger seat. One day, she asks you to explain why this happens in terms of physical science. What do you say?

the Momentum of the car (speed) goes through the object and when she brake that same speeds keeps going on the object and keeps going.
