A rigid-knee landing results in a greater force. And this is why gymnasts (and others) bend their knees when they land. So landing with bent knees leads to a smaller force. You also have determined that the collision times (∆t) is greater for the relaxed and bending knee landing. You have just determined that it is the same for both Cases. Force is a vector and hence Impulse also is a vector.
