Anet force of 100 n is applied to a wagon for five seconds. this causes the wagon to undergo a change in momentum of

500 Ns

Explanation:

According to the impulse theorem, the change in momentum of an object is equal to the impulse exerted on it. Mathematically:

where

is the change in momentum of the object

I is the impulse exerted, which is the product of

F, the net force exerted

, the time interval during which the force is applied

In this problem,

F = 100 N is the force applied on the wagon

is the time interval

Substituting, we find the change in momentum of the wagon:

El paquete golpearía el suelo a la velocidad de acuerdo con la aceleración de la gravedad. La velocidad también dependería de la masa del paquete.
