When gymnasts vault over the horse and land, they land on a big pad. How does the pad help them? A) A. The pad reduces the amount of momentum they have when they land B. The pad reduces the change of momentum when they land. C. The pad reduces the total impulse when they land. D. The pad increases the time it takes to stop, so the force is less when they land. E. The pad reduces their inertia when they land
