**not sure!! thank you!!

Answer 1

we have the subsequent formula:
\[\Large I = F\Delta t = \Delta Q\]
where I is the impulse of the force F
and \Delta Q is the change of momentum

Answer 2

\Delta t is the time change

Answer 3

ohh okay!! so does that mean they are the same? so choice C?

Answer 4

are you sure?

Answer 5

oh oops!! sorry choice B?

Answer 6

yes! That's right! since we have:
\[\Large I = \Delta Q\]

Answer 7

ooh yay!! thank you!!

Answer 8

thank you!! :)
