While cars make travelling convenient and comfortable, being on the road comes with its own risk. A car accident can cause serious injuries despite wearing a seatbelt. This is because inertia can still make us fall forward even with the seatbelt. This is why cars are fitted with airbags to make them safer in the event of an accident. An airbag reduces the impact, just like falling on a mattress is less painful than falling on a hard floor.
But what is the physics behind it? It has to do with the relationship between momentum and impact force, that is, Newton’s second law of motion. An airbag reduces the impact force by reducing the rate of change in momentum, which is related to the impact force.
