They are to rest your head against so that the neck muscles do not have to support the head in the forward looking position all the time. This is obviously important for the driver. Also, in the case of a shunt, the headrest will minimise whiplash injury be preventing the head from being pushed back.

How do headrests work?
Modern cars are fitted with headrests (and recommended to be kept at a height that is level with the occupant's neck and head) in order to protect the neck and head from whiplash in the case of a collision. In a collision the use of an appropriately adjusted headrest will end the backwards motion of the head when a force acts upon impact. i hope this helps, this is like my first answer on here ahah :)

What happens in terms of energy when a moving car hits a parked car causing the parked car to move?
When a moving car hits a parked car, energy is transferred from the moving car to the parked car. The kinetic energy of the moving car is transferred to the parked car, causing it to move. Some energy is also converted into other forms, like sound and heat, during the collision.
A bug hits a windshield of a moving car. Compared to the force of the car on the bug what is the force on the bug from the car?
The force of the car on the bug is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force of the bug on the car (Newton's Third Law). This means the bug exerts the same force on the car as the car exerts on the bug.

How does newtons first law of motion explain the need for headrests?
Newton's first law of motion explains the need for head rests because when a car drives when being in a state of non-motion, the passengers in the car will continue to remain without motion. The force of movement will push the passengers back until they compensate for motion. Since the head is likely to get jerked back quickly during this time, it explains the need for headrests.
