Answer:
Option C.
Impulse = mass × change in velocity
Explanation:
Impulse is defined by the following the following formula:
Impulse = force (F) × time (t)
Impulse = Ft
From Newton's second law of motion,
Force = change in momentum /time
Cross multiply
Force × time = change in momentum
Recall:
Impulse = Force × time
Thus,
Impulse = change in momentum
Recall:
Momentum = mass x velocity
Momentum = mv
Chang in momentum = mass × change in velocity
Change in momentum = mΔv
Thus,
Impulse = change in momentum
Impulse = mass × change in velocity
