Why is it more comfortable to fall onto a big pillow than onto a wooden floor ?

a. the pillow transfers less impulse from you.

b. the wold exerts more force in total

c. the pillow distributes the decelerating force over a greater amount of time .

d. the pillow takes less of your momentum

e. it is just a subjective impression

I think B

The wood has more force because it won’t move with you like the pillow

This would be C!
When something falls, it will hit very hard (picture a speeding car slamming into a wall). As a physics student, you might know that objects in motion like to stay in motion. So your body slamming into the wood will make you quickly stop (ouch) without slowing down the total stop time at all. The pillow will give under your weight, therefore stopping you ever so slightly slower than the wood.

Hope this helps! :)

The answer is c hope this
