Question

A 1,332kg car traveling at 54 m/s comes to a stop in 6seconds. What is the impulse experienced by the car

Answer 1

Given data

*The mass of the car is m = 1332 kg

*The given speed is v = 54 m/s

*The given time is t = 6 s

The formula for the impulse experienced by the car is given as

$J=mv$

Substitute the known values in the above expression as

$\begin{gathered} J=(1332)(54) \\ =71928\text{ kg.m/s} \end{gathered}$
