Units of impulse: N • s, kg • meters per second
Explanation:
Impulse is defined in two ways:
1)
Impulse is defined as the product between the force exerted in a collision and the duration of the collision:
where
F is the force
is the time interval
Since the force is measured in Newtons (N) and the time is measured in seconds (s), the units for the impulse are
So,
N • s
2)
Impulse is also defined as the change in momentum experienced by an object:
where the change in momentum is given by
where m is the mass and is the change in velocity.
The mass is measured in kilograms (kg) while the change in velocity is measured in metres per second (m/s), therefore the units for impulse are
so,
kg • meters per second

Answer:
x = 0.176 m
Explanation:
For this exercise we will take the condition of rotational equilibrium, where the reference system is located on the far left and the wire on the far right. We assume that counterclockwise turns are positive.
Let's use trigonometry to decompose the tension
sin 60 = / T
T_{y} = T sin 60
cos 60 = Tₓ / T
Tₓ = T cos 60
we apply the equation
∑ τ = 0
-W L / 2 - w x + T_{y} L = 0
the length of the bar is L = 6m
-Mg 6/2 - m g x + T sin 60 6 = 0
x = (6 T sin 60 - 3 M g) / mg
let's calculate
let's use the maximum tension that resists the cable T = 900 N
x = (6 900 sin 60 - 3 200 9.8) / (700 9.8)
x = (4676 - 5880) / 6860
x = - 0.176 m
Therefore the block can be up to 0.176m to keep the system in balance.
