Mechanism of injury	MOI Answer
vehicle collisions occur as	frontal, rear end, lateral, rotational or rollover
the branch of mechanics dealing with the motion of material bodies	kinetics
science of mechanisms of energy	kinetics of trauma
shattered windsheilds often have a ------------- look when people hit them	spider webbed
the last phaes of an explosion; resulting in movement of patient.	tertiary/victim displacement
the three types of ---------- are vehicle, body, and organ.	impact
the third phase in an explosion is the --------- in which debris is thrown at a victim.	blast wave
how a person is injured	mechanism of energy
factor that slows an object down	drag
when the chest hits the steering wheel with enough force the lungs my rupture this is known as the -------------.	paper bag syndrome
primary injury in a blast comes from the------------.	pressure wave
