The answer is visible light. Most of the solar radiation that reaches the Earth is made up of visible and infrared light. Only a small amount of ultraviolet radiation reaches the surface of the earth. Ordinary sunlight or solar radiation is broken into visible light (0.4 nm - 0.8 nm), ultraviolet light ( 0.4 nm) and the infrared radiation (0.8 nm). The visible light makes up almost half of the total radiation reaching the surface of the Earth.

Gwar [14]
Newtons 1st law of motion states that the object will continue to move at its present speed and direction until an outside force acts upon it.
 
So unless the objects inside the car are restrained, they will continue moving at whatever speed the car is traveling at, even if the car is stopped by a crash.

a particle of mass m sits at rest at x = 0. At time t = 0 a force given by F = Fe^(-t/T) is applied in the +x direction; F and T
wlad13 [49]

Explanation:

Given:F=m\ddot{x}=Fe^{-\frac{t}{T}}

Solving for \ddot{x}:

\ddot{x}=\frac{F}{m}e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m} } t}

where:

T=\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}

Integrating to get \dot{x} with initial conditions \dot{x}(0)=0:

\dot{x}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} t}

Integrating to get x with initial conditions x(0) = 0:

x=-1+\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} t+e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}t}

When t=T:

x=-1+\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}+e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}}=\frac{1}{e}

\dot{x}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}(1-\frac{1}{e})
