Why do we get hurt when we fall on the ground from a chair ?
Answers
Let’s begin by a simple fact that certain amount of energy is required to shatter our bone and tear out our muscles or blood vessels or even stop heart.
It is simple that total energy of any falling object is constant.
Total energy= Potential + Kinetic (Rotational, if any +Translational)
Energy can get converted from one form into another, as you know it already. So, go at more height and you gain more potential energy. When you will jump from that height, this potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy. By the time you will about to hit the ground, you will have only kinetic and no potential energy.
This kinetic energy will be transferred to your body when you hit the ground, gets distributed
inside and then decides how many bones can be broken or muscles can be teared or should you die on spot or not……
Gain more height→ Gain more potential energy→ Gets more kinetic energy when about to hit ground→ Gets more certainty of death….
the same reason for way when we fall from chair ...
hope so u are able to understand..✌️..pls follow me..❣️...mark me as brainliest..☺️...
Answer:
If you're not hurt and feel well enough, you could try to get up from the floor. The best way will differ from person to person, but as a guide, you can:
roll onto your side
push yourself up to a side sitting position
slowly get onto your hands and knees
crawl towards a sturdy piece of furniture that can support you to get up — such as a solid chair or sofa
kneel side-on to the chair or sofa with your strongest leg next to it, then slide the foot of your strongest leg forward so that it's flat on the floor. Your other knee should remain on the floor.
put both hands on the chair or sofa
raise and turn your body, pushing through your hands and foot until your bottom is safely on the chair or sofa.
sit for a few minutes before you try to do anything else and check again for injuries
If you have weak muscles, or painful and stiff joints in your legs, you may not be able to follow these instructions. In this case, you can consider getting a community alarm. so you know that help will always be available. Find out more about telecare services using the Telecare Self-check tool.
To improve your confidence and technique, it's a good idea to practice getting up from a fall in different rooms of your house and using different types of sturdy furniture for support. For your safety, ask a friend or relative to be with you when you practice.

Watch our film Upwards and Onwards to find out how to get up from the floor and how to practice.
Hear from people who’ve been through it themselves about how to get up after a fall, and what to do if you’re hurt or can’t get up. You can watch the full 20-minute film, or chose an excerpt.

Calling for help
You should call for help if you're hurt as attempting to get up could make your injury worse. You may also need to call for help if you're unable to get up yourself.
To call for help:
use a community alarm, if you have one
use a phone to call a relative, friend or neighbour. If you're injured, phone 999 and ask for an ambulance. If you’re not sure, phone 111.
ask your smart speaker, if you have one, to call someone who can help you
try shouting, or banging on a wall, to try to attract your neighbour’s attention
Having a community alarm, or mobile phone, on you at all times will help you to call for help when you need it. Your mobile phone needs to be charged and switched on all the time. A number to call in an emergency can be programmed into the phone.
Ensuring that a family member or neighbour has a spare key will allow people to get to you quickly. You can also consider leaving a spare key in a police-approved key safe. This is a secure box with a combination lock that you can keep outside your home. This can be accessed by anyone that you have shared the combination code with.
Keeping warm
After calling for help, it's important to keep warm as you may be at risk of developing hypothermia
To keep warm:
move onto a carpet, rug or other soft surface. Hard surfaces like tiles and stone floors are often colder and take longer to warm up. If you have to empty your bladder while you're on the floor, move away from the wet area
reach for a nearby duvet cover, blanket or clothing that you can use to cover yourself
move away from areas where there's a draft
keep your body moving
If you're with someone, ask them to put the heating on or make you a hot drink.
Keeping moving
You should also attempt to keep your body moving as best you can. Lying in one position for too long can make you stiff, sore and damage the skin.
Moving your body, even gently, will keep you warm, focused and calm until help arrives. If you can, try to rock from side to side. If it hurts to move, stop.
Keeping hydrated
If you’re on the floor for a long time, you could become dehydrated.
If you have a glass or bottle of water within reach, you can take small sips from it.
