A 200kg car is driving at 20m/s down the road when he sees a red light. He slows to a stop.

The car's initial momentum is ___kg m/s


The car's final momentum is ___kg m/s


The car's impulse is
___kg m/s

Sagot :

Answer:

Initial Momentum - 4000 kg*m/s

Final Momentum - 0 kg*m/s

Impulse: -4000 kg*m/s

Explanation:

The equation for momentum is P = mv

Initial Momentum

200kg * 20m/s = 4000 kg*m/s

Final Momentum

200kg * 0m/s = 0kg*m/s

Impulse = ΔP

Pfinal - Pintial = Impulse

0-4000 = -4000 kg*m/s
