Most modern vehicles have padded dashboards. This reduces collision injuries by...

• reducing the driver's change in momentum
• increasing the driver's change in momentum
• increasing the force of impact
• increasing the time of impact

The difference between a car hitting a wall vs. a car hitting a hay stack is

• the Impulse on the car hitting the wall is greater
• the change in momentum of the car hitting the wall is greater
• the force on the car hitting the hay stack is greater
• the collision time of the car hitting the hay stack is greater
