Honey and Sunny are two friends. Both are financially well off. Honey is fond of driving an SUV while Sunny enjoys driving Tata Nano.Honey explains to Sunny the risks of driving a light vehicle and Sunny explains to Honey the cost factor.
Read the above passage and answer the following questions:
(i) With whom do you agree, with Honey or with Sunny?
(ii) Explain why?
(iii) Which values of life do you learn from this discussion?

Explanation

(i), (ii) The arguments of both, Honey and Sunny are right. If an SUV were to colide with Tata Nano, both the vehicle will experience the same force as action and reaction are equal and opposite. Further, both the vehicle will undergo the same change in linear momentum. As acceleration=force//mass, the lighter vehicle will have greater acceleration (change in velocity//sec) on impact. Hence the lighter vehicle will suffer a much greater damage compared to the heavier vehicle. Of course, the initial cost an SUV is much higher and the fuel efficiency of SUV is much smaller than that of lighter vehicle.
Life is more precious than money. Saving money even when you can afford a luxury is not worthwhile. Safety while driving must be given the top priority.
