A force of 30 N is applied to a hockey puck for 0.8 s. Calculate the magnitude of the impulse

OpenStudy (moongazer):

Do you know what is impulse?

OpenStudy (moongazer):

Impulse is the product of force acting on an object and the time force acts on an object. J=Ft

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it J=30x0.8

OpenStudy (moongazer):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 2.4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the units?

OpenStudy (moongazer):

Try to simplify Ns

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are you talking about?

OpenStudy (moongazer):

If you multiply the "Force" and "time". You will get "Newton" and "seconds" based from your given. Newton is also (kg m/s^2) if you multiply that to seconds, what will you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I apologize. I lost you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i mulitply it to seconds?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i square root it?
