Can't tell if you've accidentally placed this question in the wrong category, or if you want to use a motorcycle helmet for bike riding.
But basically any helmet is better than no helmet, but a helmet built for the intended usage is better than just using any helmet.
In this case a football helmet is designed to be able to take several hits with lesser energy than compared to a motorcycle helmet.
An MC helmet is expected to protect against one massive hit and then to be discarded.

es, that is the topic of my science fair project......
if in good condition it is designed to destroy its self before u get hurt
A helmet prevents the head from taking a direct impact with some solid object.
A bike helmet is designed to protect against impacts from falls while riding a bike, with a hard outer shell and foam padding inside. A climbing helmet, on the other hand, is designed to protect against falling rocks or debris while climbing, with a more durable shell and better coverage. These differences impact safety and functionality by ensuring each helmet is optimized for the specific risks and activities they are intended for.
A Bicycle helmet
A snow helmet is designed to keep your head warm and protect against impacts from snow and ice, while a bike helmet is designed to protect against impacts from falls while biking. Snow helmets often have insulation and ear flaps for warmth, while bike helmets have ventilation for airflow. Both helmets are designed to absorb impact and protect the head, but they are specialized for different activities.
Really it depends on the velocity and how hard you hit someone. or how big or tall.
It gives the head a pad of protection, not all the protection in the world though, that's why today you see all these players getting concussions
A ski helmet is designed to protect against impacts from falls on snow or ice, while a bike helmet is designed to protect against impacts from falls on hard surfaces like pavement. Ski helmets often have more insulation and coverage for the ears and back of the head, while bike helmets are more aerodynamic and lightweight. Both helmets are designed to absorb impact and reduce the risk of head injuries, but they are optimized for the specific activities they are intended for.
Yes, but it is not recommended. Helmet manufacturers recommend helmet replacement after any impact to the shell. A motorcycle helmet is designed to absorb the impact and damage that would otherwise be reserved for your skull, but it is not designed to survive the impact. Any impact from a drop on solid ground (concrete or hardwood floor) can cause microfractures to the shell that are naked to the human eye. A good rule of thumb is this: If the impact would have raised a bump on your unprotected head, get a new helmet.
By absorbing some of the impact energy and spreading some of it over a larger surface.
