Yes it will! There is a sensor under the seat (passenger side) that senses the weight of a person in the seat. The Air-bag systems also have a sensor in them that detects sudden impact in specific directions. However - air-bags are designed to be used in conjunction WITH a seat-belt. The idea is - under rapid deceleration, the seat belt locks and the air-bag simultaneously deploys.

Why do you need to wear a seat belt?

The cabin of your car or truck is designed to absorb impact and keep the occupant area fairly stable. By wearing a seat belt you will be held in place in the cabin and greatly improve your chance of survival. If you are in an accident not wearing a seat belt you will be thrown around inside the car sustaining many more serious "crashes" inside the vehicle or, you could be thrown out of the vehicle into oncoming traffic or even be squashed by your own car. You might ask yourself this question. Would you ever go flying in a high powered military jet and not buckle up? Of course not. And yet, there is nothing going on inside that jet that is any more violent than a car crash.

Why do people hit the windshield when a car crashes into a wall?

Newton's first law tells us that "Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it." The wall applies a massive force on the car resulting in it stopping very fast. Unless the people in the car are attached to it by seat belts that can apply a force to them to stop them then they carry on moving in the direction the car was travelling in. Since the windshield is in this direction they hit it and if the car was travelling fast enough go through it and hit the wall. Moral of the story - Wear your seat belt!

Do both air bags go off in a crash if no one is sitting in the passenger seat?

In most newer cars, no. Older cars may not even have an airbag for the passenger. In most cars that do however, there is a weight sensor in the passenger seat that turns the airbag on only if there is someone heavy enough in the seat. This prevents the airbag from deploying if no one is in the seat and also prevents it from going off if there is a small child in the passenger seat.
