What else can I help you with?
When riding in a car you sense changes in speed and direction through the forces the car applies you. Do you wear seat belts to protect yourselves from speed or from acceleration?
You wear a seat belt to protect against acceleration. Acceleration is a change in speed over time. When you crash your speed changes over a very small amount of time. From an empirical stand point defining positive acceleration as an increase in speed over time a decrease in speed would be negative acceleration. This large negative acceleration that occurs when you crash causes large forces to be placed on the vehicle you are traveling in due to its mass. If you were to increase the time over which you crash you would have a smaller negative acceleration and thus less force would be enacted upon the vehicle. This is why cars have crumple zones. Newtons First law of motion an object in motion tends to stay in motion until acted upon by an unbalanced force. When you are in a car traveling at 50mph your body is also traveling at 50mph. When you crash your body would continue to travel at 50moh if it were not restrained by your seat belt. and it would be the sudden negative acceleration of your body into the things around you that would cause injury to your person. Seat padding protects you from acceleration or at least makes it more comfortable. A car can't accelerate fast enough to cause you harm. Seat belts are for catastrophic decelerations, such as a crash.
What do people wear in cars to protect themselves against this law?
People can wear seat belts in cars to protect themselves and comply with the law. Seat belts are designed to keep passengers safe by preventing them from being thrown around in the event of a crash or sudden stop.
What is a result of the deflection of chargerd particles along the Van Allen belts?
The deflection of charged particles along the Van Allen belts helps protect the Earth from harmful solar and cosmic radiation by trapping these particles in the belts. However, this can also pose a risk for satellites and spacecraft passing through the belts, as the charged particles can interfere with their electronics and systems.
Which contains bands of charged particles known as the van Allen belts?
The Earth's magnetosphere contains bands of charged particles known as the Van Allen belts. These belts are caused by Earth's magnetic field trapping high-energy particles from the Sun. They are located around the planet and protect it from solar radiation.
What van Allen radiation belts serve as a trap to high energy charged particles from the?
The Van Allen radiation belts are zones of high-energy particles surrounding Earth that are trapped by the planet's magnetic field. They primarily consist of electrons and protons, captured from the solar wind and cosmic rays. The belts serve to shield Earth from these harmful particles and help protect life on the planet.
When riding in a car we can sense changes in speed or direction through the forces the car applies on us. Do we wear seat belts in cars and airplanes to protect us from speed or from acceleration?
Acceleration
Do you have to wear seat belts on an airplane?
Are you serious? Of course you do! Safety is required on airplanes.
Do airplanes have seat belts?
Almost all of them. In the U.S., the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) requires them.
Why were safety belts are designed?
To protect you if an accident ever happens.
What are seat belts used in?
Cars, airplanes, trains, some buses, shuttles (occasionaly) jets, highchairs, rollercoasters, and anything else you can think of :)
What are belt or belts used for?
Different types of belts have many different uses depending on the need. Drive belts are used for an engines's fly wheel. Weightlifting belts are used to support a person when lifting weights. Seat belts are used to protect drivers and passengers in automobiles.
What do seat belts do besides protect you from injury?
They prevent you from being ejected from the vehicle.

Does a 1997 mercury villager have 3 belts or a serpentine belt?
there are three belts one for the alt and one for the air one for the water pump and power stearing but its called the acceleration tension pully from all i have been looking
What causes a squeal in the engine on a 1999 Chevy Corvette to increase with acceleration?
I have a 99 and had a nasty squeal that would be intermittant upon acceleration, I changed the belts (upper and lower) and used Gatorbacks (belts by Goodyear), and the squeal is gone.. Don't know if this is the problem or not, but it will only cost you about 50 bucks and hour worth of your time to find out. Good luck!
Are meter readers exempt from wearing seat belts?
Nobody is exempt from wearing a seat belt. Seat belts and the laws around them were designed to protect people in the event of a collision.
What do people wear in cars to protect themselves against this law?
People can wear seat belts in cars to protect themselves and comply with the law. Seat belts are designed to keep passengers safe by preventing them from being thrown around in the event of a crash or sudden stop.
