A quickly moving van and a slowly moving bird have a head-on collision. The bird splatters all over the windshield as a result. During the collision, the greater force is experienced by…

a) …the bird!
b) …the van!
c) The force is the same for both!
d) Not enough information to answer.

Explain your choice in the space provided.

option (c)

Explanation:

the force is same on both the van and the bird.

According to the Newton's third law, there ia an equal and opposite forces acting on both the objects.

So, they both experience same force but the direction is opposite to each other.

Bird splatters all over because the bird cannot handle large force but van can handle so that the bird splatter all over the wind shield.
