Solution
a) Answer) option a) equal
Reason : Since, impulse is given by the formula,
Impulse = m*(?v)
As the mass of the egg and tomato are same , their change in velocity (?v) is also same
?v = sqrt(2gh)
So, impulse is equal for both of them
b) Now , using impulse (I) = F*?t
impulse(I) is same for both, but the time taken for egg to reach the sidewalk is less compared to
the tomato
So, the average force is more for egg( since F is inversely proportional to ?t)
Thus , answer) option a) greater than
