Airbags do not use pneumatic systems; instead, they are typically deployed using a pyrotechnic mechanism. When a collision occurs, sensors detect the impact and ignite a small charge that rapidly inflates the airbag with nitrogen gas, allowing it to expand in milliseconds. This inflation process is not pneumatic in nature, as pneumatic systems generally rely on compressed air rather than a chemical reaction for operation.

Would an air bag in an automobile use hydraulics and pneumatic?

An airbag in an automobile primarily uses a pneumatic system, as it relies on gas inflation to deploy rapidly during a collision. The airbag is typically filled with nitrogen or another gas from a canister, which expands to fill the bag upon impact. While hydraulics can be used in various automotive systems, they are not involved in the airbag deployment process. Thus, airbags primarily function through pneumatic mechanisms rather than hydraulic ones.
