How do seatbelts and other safety devices relate to science Inertia Gravity Force?

Because inertia is how someone doesn't want to stop moving. Seatbelts relate by stopping the forward motion. thats right, inertia is an objects tendancy to resist change, seatbelts help to absorb some of the person's inertial energy by stretching a little. meaning the persons slows to a stop over a longer amount of time.

What word defines newton's first law of motion?
Inertia Learned it in science:)
How are mass and inertia related?
If the mass of an object increases, the amount of inertia increases as well.
What was Isaac Newtons most important contribution to science?
His major contribution was the discovery of the principle of gravity on Earth and on other celestial bodies.
What is meant by a solid metal?
because of the gravity of the earth and its rotating movement in science.
What do you call someone who does not believe in science?
An idiot. Would this person deny that there is gravity, or electricity, or chemicals, or almost anything else? After all, what is science? What is his definition of this science that he does not believe in?

What type of science is in sports?
many things like inertia gravity etc.
What does mass mean in science form?
Scientifically, mass is the attribute of particles that generates both inertia and gravity.
Which kind of phsical science for snowboarding?
Gravity, inertia, momentum, acceleration, meterology, medicine (for when you crash). Take your pick.
What is an example of a way science saves lives?
making seatbelts and airbags
How are mass and inertia?
mass is in science,inertia is in science. there. i feel so proud of myself for thinking up that one

inertia!
What are two ways science has made automobiles safer?
Science has been used to create airbags, and seatbelts to make automobiles safer. =)
What is the relationship between heavy objects an inertia?
Nothing specifically. Inertia is a proprety of matter (as you may know from the Bill Nye the Science Guy intro), and just because there is more mass to an oject doesn't really mean that it would have more inertia. However, other forces such as friction and gravity are spread over an oject, so there would be more friction due to the mass and more downwards force because of gravity + the mass.
Why do we wear seatbelts?
um well i think that science proved that if we are not wearing seat belts, and are in a crash, we could die, or get badly injured. Ages ago, three year olds sat in the front seat without a seat belt, and science shows that it was dangerous and IS dangerous for us to not wear seatbelts.
How is the term 'energy' defined in science?
In science, 'energy' is the ability of matter to overcome inertia and perform work.
