Question

How do airbags prevent injury ?

B. They provide upper body restraint.
C. Both A and B
D. None

Answer 1

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

A large force can be exerted on passengers by rapid deceleration, causing injuries. Seatbelts, crumple zones, and airbags in cars help reduce injuries in a crash by reducing momentum more gradually. Each of these features also absorbs some of the energy of the collision and transfers it into a less dangerous form.

Answer 2

C. Both A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

he deployment of a airbag protects the head and upper body of the driver, and reduces some of the force exerted on the driver by the seatbelt.
