How does the time of a collision affect the force?
The greater the time over which the collision occurs, the smaller the force acting upon the object. Thus, to maximise the force experienced by an object during a collision, the collision time must be decreased. Likewise, to minimise the force, the collision time must be increased. There are several real-world application of this phenomena.
How to determine if a collision is elastic?
To determine whether the collision is elastic or inelastic, calculate the total kinetic energy of the system both before and after the collision. Since the kinetic energy before the collision is equal to the kinetic energy after the collision (kinetic energy is conserved), this is an elastic collision.
