Confusion about Impact Force Let a person of mass ( m ) = 10kg. then his weight will be 98N. Now, when he jumps from 1m height on the ground, the impact force becomes 9800N ( considering deflection of ground after impact is 1cm ). 100 times. But i am highly confused. 100 times force should simply crush a human! how the force is neutralized?

 A: Well for the human body, to calculate the impact force is not as simple as you think, because we are soft objects and have a large cross section area (of course depends on which part of your body you land). The involved factors are: 


*

*Velocity upon impact: with initial speed $v_0=0$ and s the distance of the fall, then $$v=2gs$$

*Rate of deceleration: with $d$: deceleration distance: $$a=\frac{v^2}{2d}$$

*G-force: with g: gravitational acceleration: $$G = \frac{a}{g} $$

*Force of impact: W: weight $$F=WG$$

*duration of fall (redundant here): $$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}$$

*Impact pressure: A: cross-section of impact $$P = \frac{F}{A} $$

*Force withstand based on stress absorption (specific to object denoted $\sigma$):$$F_{abs}=\sigma A$$
Numerical estimate for your example: 
Simplification: to simplify the deal with force withstand of your body, we can consider landing on a surface that deflects $0.3 m$ upon impact, so:


*

*$$v=\sqrt{2*9.8*1}\approx 4.43 m/s$$

*$$a=\frac{4.43^2}{2*0.3}\approx 32.6 m/s^2$$

*$$G=\frac{32.6}{9.8}\approx 3.33$$

*$$F=10*9.8*3.33=326.34 N$$
Much lower than the impact force you had in mind! Now if you fall on your hip, the impact pressure is (considering a hip of $A=0.025 m^2$):
$$P=\frac{326.34}{0.025}=13053 Pa$$
Note we were working with $m=10 kg$
