A 1,000 kg truck initially had a velocity of 9 m/s. A force acts on it for a duration of time. After that force, the truck now has a velocity of 17 m/s. What is the impulse that the truck experienced?

Answer:

8000Ns

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the truck  = 1000kg

Initial velocity  = 9m/s

Final velocity  = 17m/s

Unknown:

Impulse  = ?

Solution:

The impulse experienced by the truck is the the change in momentum of the body.

  Impulse  = Ft

        Momentum  = m(v  - u)

        Ft  = m( v - u )

 F is the force

 t is the time

 m is the mass

  v is the final velocity

 u is the initial velocity

     Impulse  = 1000(17 - 9) = 8000Ns
