What is the maintenance of body position in response to sudden movements such as rotation acceleration and deceleration?

dynamic equilibrium


What cause air resistance?

I do not know.Perhaps it is caused by a sudden acceleration of wind resistance caused by the outer feedings lead by a major pushback from air against gravity.


What is the result of one object hitting another with sudden force?

Depending on their angle and other components such as gravity, they will go in another direction at a certain speed Depends on the amount of force, the objects, their density, their speed, etc. You cannot be sure without certain details.


Is sudden an adverb?

I think sudden is an adjective, not an adverb. Let me see:A sudden movement caused Clary to advert her eyes.Yes, I think it is an adjective.


What does an air bag do to the acceleration of the person as they land compared to hard ground and how does this change the net force on the person as they land compared to hard ground?

The airbag reduces the deceleration experienced on impact. In terms of acceleration, this means that the airbag has lowered the rate at which the downward acceleration decreases.If a falling person hits solid ground then their velocity goes from high to zero almost instantaneously. This means that the downward acceleration has changed very quickly. The airbag increases the time in which it takes the velocity to fall to zero. This is the same as saying it reduces the deceleration.Of course an airbag has the additional benefit of being soft relative to the ground, but simply considering acceleration/deceleration, reducing this lessens the harm done to the person. A high rate of acceleration/deceleration by itself can cause death/serious injury as a person's internal organs rupture due to the sudden collision with the other parts of the body (bones for instance). An airbag is helping by reducing the rate of change of the downward acceleration to a more survivable level. The force on the person is therefore lowered on "landing".

If warp speed is possible how would you keep the people from hitting the walls of the ship?

As warp drive is a technology from a science fiction, I guess you could say you would use their technology too to stop people hitting the wall. So you would you "interntial dampeners" which would lessen the effect of inertia on the crew... they would accelerate at the same speed as the space ship no matter how sudden the acceleration is.
