Question

During the first 10 seconds of a rocket launch, the momentum of the rocket increased by 8000 kg*m/s. What was the impulse applied to the rocket during this time?

Answer 1

Answer:

I = 8000 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

I = 8000 kg*m/s

Explanation:

given,                                                      

time interval = 10 sec                                      

momentum of the rocket is increased by = 8000 kg*m/s

Impulse applied = ?                                              

Impulse is equal to the change in momentum of the object.

Impulse is defined as the change in momentum of the body due to the force acting on the body for an instant of time.

In the question change of momentum is given as  8000 kg*m/s

So, the impulse applied during the interval of time will be equal to

          I = 8000 kg*m/s
