rumple zone much of the kinetic energy is transferred intoheat and sound energy resulting in a much smaller force being applied to the car and its passengers. With abetter crumple zone comes an increase in the time of collision which results in a large decrease in force. Other safety devices being devised are break away poles, collapsing steering wheel columns, andside airbags. Each of theses new items is being created to improve the safety of passengers by lookingcarefully at the physics of collisions and using Newtons three laws of motion. I hope that this informationhas provided you with a better understanding of what happens in a car crash and has provided you withenough reason to obey speed limits and to wear a seatbelt at all times while moving in a vehicle becauseremember its not only the law, its the law of inertia!...
