Will give correct answer brainliest Answers:

A. they decrease the force of impact by providing a cushion during the impact. Smaller force = lower momentum

B. They decrease the force of impact by extending the time it takes to stop the driver and passenger. Longer time= Less force

C. It takes longer time for the velocity of the vehicle to decrease, therefore the force is less. Decrease in velocity = Less force.

D. when a cat rebounds it undergoes a greater change in velocity and the force is decreased. Lower force = greater change in velocity
