It should have 1 or even less. Modern seat-belts have almost no slack when the sensors detect that the seat-belt has been rapidly expanded. This is done so to hold you in place and prevent you from slamming against the seat-belt if you have a collision at high speeds.

Suppose an object’s initial velocity is 10 m/s and its final velocity is 4 m/s. Mass is constant.
Ostrovityanka [42]

The correct answer is:

Work is negative, the environment did work on the object, and the energy of the system decreases.

In fact, the work-energy theorem states that the work done by the system is equal to its variation of kinetic energy:

W=\Delta K=K_f -K_i

In this problem, the variation of kinetic energy \Delta K is negative (because the final velocity is less than the initial velocity), so the work is negative, and this means that the environment did work on the object, and its energy decreased.
