Create your own seat belts. Use the different materials and test you’re seat belts at different speeds. Record what material you used, the speed at which your car crashed, and how much damage was done to your clay person.
Which seat belts caused the least amount of damage? Why is that? What factors are involved in creating the perfect seatbelts? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZKoDd8unPQ
Challenge: Build the best seat belt for your clay person, for cars traveling at higher speeds.
Design a seat belt for cars traveling at 250 km/hr. http://www.qspracewear.nl/images/484.jpg
How do airbags work? How do they compare to seat belts?
