Question
A projectile experiences a force of $2.0 \mathrm{kN}$ for a time of $3.6 \mathrm{~ms}$. What is the magnitude of the impulse it received? [Hint: ms means millisecond.]
Step 1
The force is given as $2.0 \mathrm{kN}$, which is $2.0 \times 10^3 \mathrm{N}$ in standard units. The time is given as $3.6 \mathrm{ms}$, which is $3.6 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{s}$ in standard units. Show more…
