Mercury is very harmful to the average human being. the mercury can easily be released from the lamp if the lamp is knocked over and broken. mercury is also harmful if inhaled. sodium on the other hand is not harmful in any way.
The statement “Impulse is a vector quantity” is true about Impulse.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:
</u>
The object’s action by applied force in a particular time interval, there happens changing in momentum called impulse. It is denoted by a symbol ‘J’ or ‘imp’ and expressed in a unit ‘Ns’. As impulse depends on the acted force, when a collision arises from front, behind or side, the force’s direction would be differed.

So, from this option A is false as impulse is not a force but changing momentum. The unit is not Newton, it is Newton second (Ns). The force direction differs (impulse direction) for each cases of collision, so option D also false. Hence, option B seems to be correct. Vector quantity deals with both direction and magnitude and important in motion study.
