Its safer for the seat to be facing backwards, because during a collision or an abrupt stop the infant would not be able to slip out of the car seat, and also so the infant will not choke on the car seat's seat belt. It is also safer to have an infant/child to be sitting in the back seat and not in the front passenger seat until the recommended age.

What determines who will get knocked backward when a big hockey player checks a small hockey player in a head-on collision?

The force of the collision, the players' masses, their center of gravity, and the distribution of the force during impact determine who will get knocked backward when a big hockey player checks a smaller hockey player. The player with lower mass and less stability is more likely to be knocked backward due to the imbalance in force distribution.


Is momentum conserved during an elastic collision?

Yes, momentum is conserved during an elastic collision.


A car impacting another car head on will have what the force of impact?

The force of impact in a head-on car collision is determined by factors such as the speed and weight of the vehicles involved. The force can be significant and result in extensive damage and injuries due to the abrupt deceleration of the vehicles during the collision. It is important to consider safety measures such as seat belts and airbags to reduce the impact force on occupants.


Is it true that you know that a collision must be elastic if?

Yes, it is true that a collision must be elastic if there is no loss of kinetic energy during the collision.


What is the change in momentum of the ball during the collision with the bat?

The change in momentum of the ball during the collision with the bat is equal to the final momentum of the ball minus the initial momentum of the ball. This change in momentum is a result of the force applied by the bat on the ball during the collision.

Why a backward facing car seat is safer for an infant a forward facing car seat during a collision or abrupt stop?

How many passes are allowed football forward and backward?

A backward pass is one that does not go forward. Often, the receiver of a backward pass may then pass the ball forward. Once the ball has been passed forward, it may not be passed forward again during the same play.

How does the air bag soften to blow?

The air bag absorbs the impact of you moving forward during a collision.


When two vehicles collide in which direction do the vehicle's occupants move?

In a head on collision, they will be thrown forward in each vehicle.


What type of collision causes your head to press against the headrest?

A rear end collision will cause your head to press against the headrest. You might also be pressed forward during this type of collision, but the first movement is against the headrest.


How come the calesa moves forward with the horse?

As the horse exerts greater force, both horse and cart move, accelerating from zero to some velocity. During that acceleration the net forward force on the horse must be greater than the net backward force on the horse. And also, the net forward force on the cart must be greater than the net backward force on the cart. This is from Newton's second law

When and why did you start to put your clocks forward and backward?

I believe it started with the english, it was to increase the amount of daylight seen in the day, So it didnt get dark so early during summer (or winter? i dunno)


During the interval of collision is the momentum conserved?

In an isolated system where no external forces are acting, momentum is conserved during the interval of collision. This means the total momentum of the objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the objects after the collision.
