What is impulse? How does this relate to momentum?

Impulse is a force acting briefly on a body and producing a finite change of momentum.
This relates to momentum because impulse is a change in momentum. Impulse = momentum. Since force is a vector quantity, impulse is also a vector in the same direction. Impulse applied to an object produces equivalent vector change in its linear momentum, also in the same direction. m•(triangle)v

Do you believe in God (why or why not)?
masya89 [10]
Yes I believe in god.I believe in him because there is huge gaps in science that can not be solved. I also believe in him because I was also taught about him when I was little by family & my mom so I grew up learning about him which made my beliefs stronger of course.

Part A (4 pts) Consider light of wavelength λ = 670nm traveling in air. The light is incident at normal incidence upon a thin fi
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Explanation:

On both sides of the film , the mediums have lower refractive index.

for interfering pattern from above , for constructive interference of reflected wave from both sides of the film , the condition is

2μt = ( 2n +1 ) λ / 2

μ is refractive index of film ,t is thickness of film λ is wavelength of light

n is order of fringe

for minimum thickness

n = 0

2μt =  λ / 2

t =  λ / 4μ

= 670 / 1.75 x 4

= 95.71 nm .

Since astronauts in orbit are apparently weightless, a clever method of measuring their masses is needed to monitor their mass g
djyliett [7]

Answer:

a) m = 69.0 kg

b) release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement

Explanation:

a) Let's use Newton's second law

         F = m a

         m = F / a

         m = 60.0 / 0.870

         m = 69.0 kg

b) when we exert a force on the astronaut it acquires a momentum po, as the astronaut system plus spacecraft is isolated, the momentum is conserved

         p₀ = p_f

         m v = M v '

         v ’= \frac{m}{M} \ v

so we see that the ship is moving backwards, but since the mass of the ship is much greater than the mass of the astronaut, the speed of the ship is very small.

One method to avoid this effect is to release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement so that the initial momentum of the astronaut plus the gas is zero and therefore no movement is created in the spacecraft.
