Question

a person is prone to more serious injuries when falling from a certain height on a hard concrete floor then on a sandy surface explain why

Answer 1

a person is prone to more serious injuries when falling from a certain height on a hard concrete floor than on sand because as we know that Impulse of Force is equals to f*t so therefore the force with which it will come in contact with the ground will increase due to the decrease in the meantime and he will get hurt whereas in Sandy areas the time to come in contact with the ground is more due to which force decreases hope it helps mark as brainliestand follow me

Answer 2

When a person falls from a certain height on a hard concrete floor than on a sandy surface he/she is prone to more more serious injuries as when he falls on the hard floor, he/ she comes to rest almost instantaneously so the floor exerts a large force on the person and gets injured. But if he/she falls on sand or carpet, the time duration in which he/she comes to rest increases and so the carpet or sand exerts a less force on the person and he is not injured.
