Aforce of 14 n acts on a 5 kg object for 3 seconds.
a. what is the object’s change in momentum?
b. what is the object’s change in velocity?

a) 42Nm b) 8.4m/s

Explanation:

Impulse is defined as object change in momentum.

Since Force = mass × acceleration

F = ma

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity.

F = m(v-u)/t

Cross multiply

Ft = m(v-u)

Since impulse = Ft

and Ft = m(v-u)... (1)

The object change in velocity (v-u) = Ft/m from eqn 1

Going to the question;

a) Impulse = Force (F) × time(t)

Given force = 14N and time = 3seconds

Impulse = 14×3

Impulse = 42Nm

b) The object change in velocity (v-u) = Ft/m where mass = 5kg

v-u = 14×3/5

Change in velocity = 42/5 = 8.4m/s

the second one and the forth one are in the purple because they are opinions and the rest are in the yellow

i don't understand. explain it clearly
