When you are struck by a moving object is it favorable that the object makes contact with you over a short time or over a long time?
if you are struck by a moving object, the shorter contact time means the higher the forces pushing on you doing the most damage. Contact over a longer time means lower forces and less damage. An example is if somebody throws a bowling ball at you and it suddenly hits you. If you have a thick pillow on you it will impact you over a longer time because it has to crush the pillow for a while before it gets to you, causing less damage to your body because the forces pushing are lower. That is why there are air bags in cars. To slow down the impact time with an air cushion.
