PASSAGE
Engineers compare four restraint-force patterns. Each pattern supplies an impulse of 1800 N⋅s1800\ \text{N}\cdot\text{s} and brings the same test dummy to the required final speed. Pattern A provides a constant force of 12 kN12\ \text{kN} for 0.15 s0.15\ \text{s}. Pattern B increases linearly from zero to 24 kN24\ \text{kN} over 0.15 s0.15\ \text{s}. Pattern C provides a constant force of 9 kN9\ \text{kN} for 0.20 s0.20\ \text{s}. Pattern D increases linearly from zero to 15 kN15\ \text{kN} over 0.24 s0.24\ \text{s}.
If all four patterns fit within the available occupant travel distance, which pattern best minimizes the peak force while still providing the required impulse?
