Question Answer
energia potencjalna
start learning
potential energy
Passengers who are riding in a car have potential energy
zwalniać (redukować prędkość)
start learning
decelerate
In a crash, a car decelerates quickly.
energia kinetyczna
start learning
kinetic energy
This causes the passengers’ potential energy to become kinetic energy
pasy bezpieczeństwa
start learning
seatbelts
Passengers wearing seatbelts stop.
odległość zatrzymania
start learning
stopping distance
With non-stretching seatbelts, the passenger’s stopping distance is short.
rozciągać (się)
start learning
stretching
Stretching seatbelts increase this distance.
powiększenie
start learning
increase
Stretching seatbelts increase this distance.
zasada
start learning
principle
The work-energy principle shows that a slightly greater stopping distance exerts less force on passengers
nieznacznie, nieco
start learning
slightly
The work-energy principle shows that a slightly greater stopping distance exerts less force on passengers
wywierać (nacisk wpływ)
start learning
exerts
The work-energy principle shows that a slightly greater stopping distance exerts less force on passengers
uraz, uszkodzenie, kontuzja
start learning
injury
The new seatbelts reduce injuries.
zamiast, natomiast
start learning
instead
Instead, most of the passenger’s kinetic energy transfers to the belt.
przenosić się
start learning
transfer
Instead, most of the passenger’s kinetic energy transfers to the belt.
wada, niedogodność
start learning
drawback
the drawback of long stopping distances
przyczyna, powód
start learning
cause
This causes the passengers’ potential energy to become kinetic energy.
