Chpt 3
- It's the law of action-reaction, and it helps to explain why you feel a jolt when you collide with another bumper car.†
Chpt 3
- Bumper car rides are designed so that the cars can collide without much danger to the riders.†

- Each car has a large rubber bumper all around it, which prolongs the impact and diffuses the force of the collision.†
Chpt 3collision = the crashing of things with violent impact; or coming together into conflict
- When bumper cars collide, the drivers feel a change in their motion and become aware of their inertia.†
Chpt 3
- Though the cars themselves may stop or change direction, the drivers continue in the direction they were moving before the collision.†
