Potential Energy = mgh,

where m = mass in kg,  g ≈ 10 m/s², h = height above ground = 8 m

PE = mgh
  
      = 70*10*8 = 5600 J

Which of the following statements is TRUE about impulse? (Consider the Impulse-Momentum Theorem: F▲t = m ▲v )
kotykmax [81]

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.

                   \text {Impulse }=\text {Force } \times \text {time}=\vec{F} \Delta t

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.
