The impulse experienced is -18,000 kg m/s

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object. Mathematically:

I=\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity of the object

u is the initial velocity

\Delta p is the change in momentum

I is the impulse

In the collision in this problem,

m = 1300 kg is the mass of the car

u = 11 m/s is the initial velocity

v = -2.5 m/s is the final velocity (negative, since it is in the opposite direction)

Substituting, we find

I=(1300)(-2.5-11)=-17,550 kg m/s

So the closest choice is

-18,000 kg m/s

How can i calculate distances between objects by using the concepts of echo location
dangina [55]
Send wave from your location to the object and wait until echo is back.
Measure the time taken.

If you know the speed of wave (say sound wave), than just multiply by half time taken wave to return
