    Answer: D

    Reduced impact time will increase the impact force

    Explanation: Collision occurs when two or more bodies collide and exert forces on each other within a short time.

    If a body of mass M moving with a velocity V collide with another body, the kinetic energy of the body is equal to the work done by the body.

    That is, K. E = 1/2mv^2 = F * s

    Where workdone = Force * distance

    Make F the subject of formula

    Mv^2/2s = F

    But V = distance s/time t

    Substitute for V

    Ms^2/2t^2s = F

    Ms/2t^2 = F

    From the equation above, we can deduce that F is inversely proportional to the square of time.

    Therefore, the reduced impact time will increase the impact force
