Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
An egg landing on a soft surface will remain intact. The surface increases the ____ and decreases the ____ during the impact
A
impulse, time
B
impulse, force
C
force, time
D
time, force
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Increasing the time of the impact results in a decrease in the force. Therefore if t is increased, for a constant change in momentum, the force on the body is reduced.

Detailed explanation-2: -A force acting for a given amount of time will change an object’s momentum. Put another way, an unbalanced force always accelerates an object-either speeding it up or slowing it down. If the force acts opposite the object’s motion, it slows the object down.

Detailed explanation-3: -Impulse of Force It is equal to the change of momentum of an object that isn’t changing mass. This is a useful concept when you are studying impact forces. If you increase the time over which the change of force happens, the impact force also decreases.

Detailed explanation-4: -When an egg is dropped from a higher height, it reaches a greater speed before hitting the ground. So the egg dropped from 5 meters has a greater velocity when it strikes the ground. It thus experiences the greater velocity change during the collision.
