Statement I: A quick collision between two bodies is more violent than slow collision, even when initial and final velocities are identical.
Statement II: The rate of change of momentum determine that force is small or large.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
In a quick collision, time 
is small. As 
constant, therefore force involved large, i.e. collision is more violent is comparison to slow collision.
