Once activated, the air bag will fully inflate in 1/25 of a second or 40mil seconds.
The airbag's inflation system reacts sodium azide (NaN3) with potassium nitrate (KNO3 to produce nitrogen gas. Hot blasts of the nitrogen inflate the airbag.
Gas is created, increasing n; and The added gas increases the pressure and then the volume of the airbag. for my fellow cheaters out there
The airbag contains sodium azide (NaN3) with potassium nitrate (KNO3) to produce nitrogen gas. Hot blasts of the nitrogen inflate the airbag.
From the onset of a crash, the entire deployment and inflation process is about 0.04 seconds. The Airbag begins to deflate immediately due to small vents behind the bag.
stop smoking that green staff.
it means that if you crash the airbag will inflate. if it is off the airbag will not deploy Wrong Its the other way around Light on means there is a system fault and the computer has disarmed the air bag Light off means system is armed and will inflate to protect you in an accident
The mechanism for the airbag contains sodium azide (NaN3). In the event of an accident, the sodium azide rapidly decomposes into sodium metal and nitrogen gas. The latter fills the airbag.
Depends on the size but typically ten to twenty minutes
It's never recommended to work on the airbag system unless you are a qualified technician, but if you want to disable the airbag, remove the module and unplug it, then reinstall the module. However, be aware that the airbag will not inflate in case of an accident, and you must notify any subsequent owners of this issue.
The airbag system has a malfunction and will not deploy if needed as long as the airbag symbol stays on.
The safe distance is about 10 inches. This is to allow the airbag to inflate properly which helps to protect you from greater injury.
