Vehicles with high speeds have high momenta (plural of momentum). When they come to rest in very small time they experience high forces
we know that rate of change of momentum is force, lower the time higher is force. So, slow moving vehicles experience less force. It is important to note that if any one vehicle involving has high speed it can do more damage both the vehicles involving.

How do you know about Black Holes?
kondaur [170]

Answer: From space/ astronauts

Explanation:

A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light can not get out. The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying.

Because no light can get out, people can't see black holes. They are invisible. Space telescopes with special tools can help find black holes. The special tools can see how stars that are very close to black holes act differently than other stars.
