The magnitude of the force involved in a certain collision (measured in newtons) is equal to the change in momentum (measured in kilogram meters/second). What is the time interval of the collision?

Question

Newton's second law states that the force on an object is the rate of change of momentum of that object.

The problem didnt give me any numbers though, how do I go about answering?

anonymous · Answer

That can be written as, for example:
$$F = \frac{\Delta p}{t}$$
Where F is the force, p is the momentum and t is the time.
