Accepted Answer

$$0\ \mathrm{m/s}$$

Question 8

A force of 10 N acts on a 2 kg object for 0.5 seconds. What is the change in momentum of the object?

Accepted Answer

$$5\ \mathrm{kg\cdot m/s}$$

Question 9

Which of the following is the correct formula for impulse?

Accepted Answer

$$F \Delta t$$

Question 10

Accepted Answer

$$200,000\ \mathrm{N}$$

Question 12

Which of the following best explains why airbags reduce injuries in car accidents?

Accepted Answer

They increase the time over which the momentum changes, reducing the force.

Accepted Answer

$$40\ \mathrm{N}$$

Question 14

Which of the following is NOT a requirement for the conservation of momentum in a system?

Accepted Answer

The objects must have equal masses.

Question 15
