Question

The force involved in a collision is 1.0 × 10^2 newtons. The duration of the impact is 1.0 × 10^-4 seconds. What is the value of the change in momentum?

Answer 1

F= change in momentum / change in time

Answer 2

so change in momentum is just ( 1.0 x 10 ^ 2N) X ( 1.0 x 10^-4 seconds)

Answer 3

100 x (whats the second part? Im doing mental math. A little difficult)

Answer 4

1.0 x 10^ -4 = 1/10000

Answer 5

okay i got 0.01

Answer 6

My options are:

A. 1.0 x 10^1
B. 1.0 x 10^-1
C. 1.0
D. 1.0 x10^-2

Would it be D?
