Answer: It depends.
The "force" of the impact depends on the momentum of the object. Momentum depends on mass and velocity. If the mass and velocity are constant, then extending the time of impact will not change the momentum.
Suppose you stand 10 feet away from me and I throw a brick at your face. Then suppose you stand 40 feet away and I throw the same brick at your face. It's going to hurt you about the same amount (ignoring gravity and air resistance).
Suppose you are 40 feet above me and I throw a brick at your face. It will hurt less, because gravity will be slowing down the brick.
Suppose I am 40 feet above you and I throw a brick at your face. It will hurt more, because gravity will be speeding up the brick.

What hppens to the gravitational force when the mass is doubled?
The gravitational force is doubled.
Collision two objects equal mass which one experiences the greater force of impact?
both experience the same impact
What happens to acceleration when force is doubled?
F=ma, if "a" doubles and "m" is the same, the resultant "F" will double. Acceleration is doubled if force is doubled, a1=f/m; a2= 2f/m= 2a1.
What is the kind of collision produces the greatest force of impact?
Head-on collision produces the greatest force of impact.
When the force applied an object is doubled how does the pressure exerted on the object changes?
When the force is doubled the pressure is doubled as well. Read Newton's law.
If a mack truck and a motorcycle have a head on collision upon which vehicle is the impact force greater?
The force is the same on both vehicles. The acceleration produced by the force will be greater on the lower-mass vehicle.
If a bicycle and a massive truck have a head-on collision upon which vehicle is the impact force greater?
The bicycle would have the greatest impact force.
If a bicycle and a massive truck have a head-on collision upon which vehicle is the impact force greater which vehicle undergoes the greater change in its motion?
which vehicle is the impact force greater? the bicycle.which vehicle undergoes the greater change in its motion? the bicycle
What hppens to the gravitational force when the mass is doubled?
The gravitational force is doubled.
If a Mack truck and Honda Civic have a head-on collision upon which vehicle is the impact force greater?
The force would be equal to both vehicles.
If a cooper mini and a semi-truck have a head-on collision which vehicle experiences th greater force of impact?
mini cooper
Collision two objects equal mass which one experiences the greater force of impact?

When the force is doubled the pressure is doubled as well. Read Newton's law.
How much centripetal force is needed by a body moving in uniform circular motion if the mass is doubled?
If the mass is doubled then the force needed is also doubled,according to the equation F=MV2/R
What is life force doubled?
This is life force, biologically, as well as spiritually.
