How long does it take for an airbag to deploy


Asked by admin @ in Social Studies viewed by 250 People


When an airbag deploys, how long does it take to inflate, protect the driver, and deflate?

Answered by admin @



I believe the answer is: One tenth of a second

When collision happens, the average time needed for the driver's head to hit the dashboard (while wearing seatbelts) is around 0.25 seconds.
The one tenth of a second timeframe is the industry standard for airbag to prevent the driver's head from hitting hard 
objects.
