In a lab environment, you are investigating the impulse of a force exerted on a brick when the brick's speed is reduced from 2.5

m/s to a complete stop. First, you allow the brick to slam into a secured piece of wood, bringing the brick to a sudden stop. Second, you allow the brick to plow into a large slab of gelatin so that the brick comes to a gradual halt. In which situation is there a greater impulse of the force on the brick?
The impulse is the same in both situations.
There is a greater impulse of the force on the brick from the gelatin.
Not enough information is given to determine the answer.
There is a greater impulse of the force on the brick from the wall.

Answer:

The impulse is the same in both situations.

Explanation:

As we know that impulse is defined as change in momentum

so it is given as

\Delta P = m(v_f - v_i)

also we know that

\Delta P = F\Delta t

so we will have

v_f = 0

v_i = 2.5 m/s

now impulse is given as

\Delta P = m(2.5 - 0)

so it is independent of the time for which it is stopped

so impulse will be same in both cases

1. A car travels at 55 km/h for 6.0 hours. How far does it travel?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

330 km

55*6= 330 km. An easy formula for this is multiplying time with speed.

Explanation:

330 kilometros

55 * 6 = 330 km. Una fórmula fácil para esto es multiplicar el tiempo por la velocidad.

You exert of force of 75 newtons on a rock. You push and you push, but you can't budge it. You are exhausted! How much work did
sergiy2304 [10]
You performed 0 work for the fact that work means the distance of movement made on an object not the amount of force it is exposed to. 0 work because it didn't move
