In which of these places can an airbag be located?
Active and passive safety
Explanation
The **airbags** are safety devices that inflate in the event of an accident to protect the passengers. They are located primarily at the front of the vehicle and on the sides.
- A common place where an airbag is located is the **front passenger seat**. This is because its function is to protect the person traveling in that seat in the event of a collision.
- It is important to remember that airbags are placed neither on the floor of the passenger compartment nor in the side windows, since their purpose is to protect the passengers’ bodies, especially the face and chest, from direct impacts and from objects that may come loose during an accident.
Therefore, the **front passenger seat** is a suitable and common place for the installation of an airbag.
