Akhtar,Kiran and Rahul were riding in a motorcar that was17.ving with a high velocity on an expressway when an insectmot the windshield and got stuck on the windscreen. Akhtarhiand Kiran started pondering over the situation. Kiran suggestedthat the insect suffered a greater change in momentum ascompared to the change in momentum of the motorcar (becausethe change in the velocity of the insect was much more thanthat of the motorcar). Akhtar said that since the motorcar wasmoving with a larger velocity, it exerted a larger force on theinsect. And as a result the insect died. Rahul while putting anentirely new explanation said that both the motorcar and theinsect experienced the same force and a change in theirmomentum. Comment on these suggestions.
