Why are porcelain objects wrapped in paper or straw before packing for transportation?

 
Hint: Appy Newton's second law.
Explanation:

Porcelain objects are wrapped in paper or straw before packing to reduce the chances of damage during transportation. During transportation sudden jerks or even falls takes place, the force takes a longer time to reach the porcelain objects through paper or straw for the same change in momentum as F = pt and therefore. a lesser force acts on an object.
