Most cars are now fitted with safety airbags. During a sudden impact, a triggering
mechanism fires an ammunition cartridge that rapidly releases nitrogen gas into the
airbag.
In a particular simulated accident, a car of mass 800 kg is travelling towards a wall.
Just before impact, the speed of the car is 32 m s–1. It rebounds at two-thirds of its
initial speed.
The car takes 0.50 s for the car to come to rest. During the crash, the car’s airbag fills
up to a maximum volume of 3.4 × 10–2 m3 at a pressure of 1.0 × 105 Pa. The
temperature inside the airbag is 20 °C. Calculate:
(i)
