Answer:
d = 0.38 m
Explanation:
As we know that the person due to the airbag action, comes to a complete stop, in 36 msec or less, and during this time, is decelerated at a constant rate of 60 g, we can find the initial velocity (when airbag starts to work), as follows:
vf = v₀ -a*t
If vf = 0, we can solve for v₀:
v₀ = a*t = 60*9.8 m/s²*36*10⁻³s = 21.2 m/s
With the values of v₀, a and t, we can find Δx, applying any kinematic equation that relates all of some of these parameters with the displacement.
Just for simplicity, we can use the following equation:

where vf=0, v₀ =21.2 m/s and a= -588 m/s².
Solving for d:

⇒ d = 0.38 m
To solve this problem, we will start by defining each of the variables given and proceed to find the modulus of elasticity of the object. We will calculate the deformation per unit of elastic volume and finally we will calculate the net energy of the system. Let's start defining the variables
Yield Strength of the metal specimen

Yield Strain of the Specimen

Diameter of the test-specimen

Gage length of the Specimen

Modulus of elasticity



Strain energy per unit volume at the elastic limit is



Considering that the net strain energy of the sample is




Therefore the net strain energy of the sample is 
We assume

(acceleration is constant. We apply the equation

where s is the distance to stop

. We find the acceleration from this equation

We know the acceleration, thus we find the distance necesssary to stop when initial speed is
