What is the impact velocity of a ball that is thrown vertically downwards with an initial speed of 4.6 m/s from the edge of a building 15.5 m in height?

When you jump from an elevated position you usually bend your knees upon reaching the ground. by doing this, you make the time of the impact about 10 times as great as for a stiff-legged landing. in this way the average force your body experiences is a) less than 1/10 as great. b) more than 1/10 as great. c) about 1/10 as great.d) about 10 times as great.
