On the basis of the (b) concept of impulse, a person falling on frozen ice will sustain more injuries than a person falling on powdery snow.
Explanation:
- It's possible that slipping on ice is more deadly than you believe. Falling on ice or snow can cause a variety of serious injuries. Compared to other kinds of slip and fall accidents, when an unsuspecting person slips on a patch of ice or loses footing on snow-covered ice, they fall faster and hit the ground harder.
- Winter weather-related slip and fall accidents are common on sidewalks, stairs, steps, and parking lots. Slipping on ice is similar to being lifted off your feet and slammed into the ground in many ways.
- The force with which you strike the ground is determined in large part by factors such as how quickly you approach a patch of ice, whether it's visible or black ice, the stride with which you make contact, whether you're going up or downstairs, and so on. The severity of your injury, as well as how it affects your body, is determined by how you fall.
