Crash Test Dummy Safety Testing

The video explores the role of crash test dummies in safety testing. It covers various tests such as the head drop test, knee impact test, and frontal chest test, explaining how these tests measure forces and simulate human reactions. The video highlights the importance of these tests in improving safety standards and ensuring the accuracy of dummies through recalibration.

What is the primary role of a crash test dummy in safety testing?

• To replace human drivers

• To ensure human-like reactions

• To test vehicle speed

• To entertain during tests

What is measured during the head drop test?

• Sound

• Temperature

• Acceleration or deceleration

• Light intensity

What is the acceptable range of deceleration in the head drop test?

• 150 to 200 G

• 100 to 150 G

• 200 to 250 G

• 50 to 100 G

What is the weight used in the knee impact test?

• 2 kg

• 5 kg

• 10 kg

• 15 kg

How long can a crash test dummy last before needing recalibration?

• 5 years

• 10 years

• 15 years

• 20 years

What is the purpose of the rib impact test?

• To test knee displacement

• To measure head acceleration

• To assess abdominal force

• To evaluate steering wheel impact

Why do crash test dummies need recalibration?

• To change their appearance

• To ensure accuracy

• To improve their speed

• To increase their weight

What is the compression depth in the frontal chest test?

• 5 cm

• 3 cm

• 7 cm

• 1 cm

What does the frontal chest test simulate?

• A steering wheel impact

• A rollover accident

• A rear-end crash

• A side collision

What is the ultimate goal of these crash test simulations?

• To improve fuel efficiency

• To reduce car weight

• To save lives

• To increase car prices
