Physical Governing Principles
Kinetic energy ($E_k = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$) increases quadratically with speed. Stopping distance scales exponentially, requiring greater work done ($W = F \cdot d$) by surface friction ($\mu$). During an impact, structural crumple displacement ($d_c$) attenuates peak deceleration force ($F_{impact} = \frac{E_k}{d_c}$).
