Hi there!
Impulse = Change in momentum
I = Δp = mΔv = m(vf - vi)
Where:
m = mass of object (kg)
vf = final velocity (m/s)
vi = initial velocity (m/s)
Begin by converting grams to kilograms:
1 kg = 1000g ⇒ 145g = .145kg
Now, plug in the given values. Remember to assign directions since velocity is a vector. Let the initial direction be positive and the opposite be negative.
I = (.145)(-20 - 17) = -5.365 Ns
The magnitude is the absolute value, so:
|-5.365| = 5.365 Ns
B. Elastic potential to kinetic energy
The elastic potential energy in the slingshot will be transferred to the stone as kinetic energy as the stone is launched.
in a one dimensional collision, a 4kg object with 5ms^1 and 6 kg object with 2ms^1 have initial velocity, the magnitude of impulse is 12 , 18
given,
mass 1 = 4kg
mass 2 = 6kg
velocity 1 = 5ms^1
velocity 2 = 2ms^1
impulse 1 = 4*(5-2)
= 12
Impulse 2 = 6*(5-2)
= 18
