Throwing an egg into a sheet compared to throwing the egg against a hard surface is an effective way to demonstrate impulse. Which of the following explanations best describes the impulse of throwing an egg?
a) The impulse is the same in both scenarios, but the egg thrown into a sheet applies more force over a shorter period of time.
b) The impulse is the same in both scenarios, but the egg thrown into a sheet applies less force over a greater length of time.
c) The impulse of the egg thrown against a hard surface is greater than the impulse of the egg thrown into the sheet. This is the reason the egg breaks.
d) The impulse of the egg thrown into the sheet is greater than the impulse of the egg thrown against a hard surface. This is the reason the egg does not break.
