They absorb energy to reduce injuries.
yes airbags protect you in a car crash
The force of the crash must be high enough for the crash sensors to inflate the airbags ( SRS )
Impact sensors
airbags are important because if you get in to a crash you can die without an airbag and its also used for cushion when it happens
No , not unless you crash into something in front of you afterwards with enough force for the airbags to inflate
Nope, but it does have great crash test ratings without them
Yes.
About 94%
They both keep you safe in the event of a crash.
Airbags prevent excessive forward movement in a front-end crash, therefore, reducing injuries.
A car with higher crash worthiness can better absorb and disperse energy during a collision, reducing the force felt by occupants. This helps minimize injuries by preventing excessive transfer of energy to the occupants. Features like crumple zones, airbags, and seat belts work together to protect passengers during a crash.
Sodium azide is used in airbags because it is a very fast-releasing gas-generating compound. When a car crash occurs, an electrical signal triggers the decomposition of sodium azide, producing nitrogen gas that quickly inflates the airbag to protect the occupants.
