Answer:
Explanation:
Impulse on an object is given by .
However, it's also given as change in momentum (impulse-momentum theorem).
Therefore, we can set the change in momentum equal to the former formula for impulse:
.
Momentum is given by . Because the truck's mass is maintained, only it's velocity is changing. Since the truck is being slowed from 26.0 m/s to 18.0 m/s, it's change in velocity is 8.0 m/s. Therefore, it's change in momentum is:
.
Now we plug in our values and solve:
(two significant figures).
