Answer:

Pressure

Explanation:

Let , us understand by a simple example. Let us apply some force into a needle into a cardboard what we observe , we saw that the needle get into the cardboard.

Now we will apply the same force with a water bottle into the same cardboard , now we noticed that it doesn't get buried into it.

In both examples we noticed that force applied in both the cases is equal but the surface area of the object in which force applied is different.

Here come the term pressure.

Pressure is defined as force applied per unit area.

Therefore , as area increases pressure also decreases . That's why bottle don't get buried but needle go through it.

A student wants to determine the impulse delivered to the lab cart when it runs into the wall. The student measures the mass of
WINSTONCH [101]

The correct answer to the question is : A) The velocity of the cart after it hits the wall.

EXPLANATION:

Before answering this question, first we have to understand impulse.

Impulse of a body is defined as the change in momentum or the product of force with time.

Mathematically impulse = m ( v- u ).

Here, v is the final momentum and u is the initial momentum.

Hence, we need the velocity of the cart after it hits the wall in order to calculate the impulse of the lab cart.
