If you throw a raw egg against a wall, you'll break it, but if you throw it with the same speed into a sagging sheet it won't br

eak. why? 1. the sheet is much slicker than the wall. 2. the breaking egg causes a larger impact time, decreasing the force. 3. the impact time when the egg strikes a sagging sheet is long, so the impact force is small. 4. the velocity of the egg decreases faster in the sheet than on the wall.

<span>The egg doesn't break when it hits the sheet because the impact time is longer. Momentum means the egg is slowed rather than coming to an abrubt halt. The softer the object that the egg hits, the longer the time it takes to break. A sheet is so soft that the force is never high enough for the egg to break.</span>

An acorn falls from a branch located 9.8 m above the ground. After 1 s of falling, the acorn's velocity will be 9.8 m/s downward
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The acorn hasn't hit the ground because it only falsl half of the branch distance from the ground

Explanation:

given information:

h =9.8

t =1 s

g = 9.8

the average speed

v = 1/2 gt²

   = 1/2 (9.8) (1)²

   = 4.8 m/s

the distance in 1s

h = v t

   = 4.8 (1)

   = 4.8 m

the acorn hasn't hit the ground because it only falsl half of the branch distance from the ground

   =
