♦ China ware are wrapped is staw paper before packing. The straw paper between the chinaware increases the times. Hence, they strick against each other with a less force and are less damaged.
♦ We are hurt less when we jump on muddy floor than on a hard floor. When we jump on a muddy floor, the floor is carried in the direction of the jump and time interval is increased. As a result, the rate of change of momentum decreases. Hence forced exerted on his foot is less.
♦ Vehicles are fitted with shocker which increases the time. So the less force is experienced by the passenger and the rider becomes comfortable.
♦ A karate player breaking a pile of bricks with a single blow. He do this acting quite fast reducing time interval. Because of this a large force F acts on the bricks.
