Question

how would the amount of force on the head compare to the amount of force on the object it collides with in each system a, b, and c? in every collision, the peak force on the head would be the same as the peak force on the other object in the collision. in some, but not all collisions, the peak force on the head would be the same as the peak force on the other object in the collision. in every collision, the peak force on the head would be different than the peak force on the other object in the collision.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third - law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In a collision between two objects, the force exerted by one object on the other is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force exerted by the second object on the first. So, in every collision, the peak force on the head would be the same as the peak force on the other object.

Answer:

In every collision, the peak force on the head would be the same as the peak force on the other object.
