Question

A force of 50n acts on a body for 1/10s. Find the change in the momentum of the body

Answer 1

Answer:

5 kg m/sec

Explanation:

Given force F = 50N

according to Newton's second law of motion,

Force acting on the body (F) = rate of change of linear momentum of the body

i.e. F = change in momentum of the body/time

so, change in momentum = Force acting on the body × time taken

change in momentum = 50 × (1/10) = 5 kg m/sec

Answer 2

Answer:

5 kg - m/s answer of the question
