1 10 points In Texas in 1985, vehicular safety laws were enacted due to the magnitude of crash injuries and/or fatalities: both front seat seatbelt wearing, and children being placed in safety car seats became mandatory. My sisters and I were no longer allowed to sleep in the back of the suburban on long road trips, and rightly so given that the first drunk driving laws were not enacted in Texas until 1987, which banned drivers, but not passengers, from drinking in a moving vehicle on public roadways. It was common in those days for parents to hold babies on their laps in moving vehicles, and the pushback against both seatbelts and car seats during the law's debate and implementation was as fierce as it has been against facemasks during the pandemic. Many parents claimed they could keep hold of their babies in a collision. Consider that the average baby weight at 6 months is 16.0 lbs. For a frontal collision, the baby will move (forward or backward) forward due to acceleration ( why does the baby move?). Calculate the average force (in pounds) needed to hold the child in a frontal collision that stops the car from a speed of 30.0 mph in 0.100 s. type your answer... Recalculate for 55.0 mph, the average highway speed at the time. type your answer...
