Question

lesson 5 quiz question 1 of 5 #1 why are head - on collisions often the deadliest? a) they are less likely to happen. b) they involve slower speeds. c) they have the greatest force of impact. d) they are easier to control.

Explanation:

In a head - on collision, the relative velocity of the two objects is the sum of their individual velocities. According to Newton's laws, force is related to the change in momentum. A head - on collision has a large change in momentum in a short time, resulting in a great force of impact, which is why they are often the deadliest.

Answer:

C. They have the greatest force of impact
