In a collision, what is the direct result of increasing the time over which an object comes to a stop, assuming the change in velocity remains the same?

The total energy absorbed by the object is increased.

The peak impact force experienced by the object is decreased.

The object's mass is effectively increased during the collision.

The object's total change in velocity is reduced.

According to the principles of impact force, which statement correctly describes the relationship between force and time during a collision where an object's velocity changes by a fixed amount?

Force and time are directly proportional; a longer time means a much larger force.

As collision time decreases, the resulting impact force also decreases proportionally.

Force and time are inversely related.

The concrete floor stops the package over a very short time, creating a large impact force.

The concrete causes a short stop time and thus a large force.

The foam pad absorbs the package's kinetic energy and converts it entirely into sound waves.

Using extremely rigid landing legs to prevent any bending.

Making the rover as heavy as possible to increase stability.

Incorporating materials that compress or crush upon impact.

Minimizing the surface area of the landing feet.

Egg A has a smaller change in velocity because the pillow provides extra support against gravity.

Egg B experiences a smaller force.

The pillow increases stopping time, reducing the force on Egg A.

Both eggs experience the same impact force since they fall from the same height.
