11. Momentum & Impulse

An object experiences a force given by the graph below. What value of F_max would give an impulse of 6 N⋅s?

(II) The force on a bullet along the barrel of a firearm is given by the formula F = [740 ― (2.3 x 10⁵ s⁻¹ ) t] N over the time interval t = 0 to t = 3.0 x 10⁻³ s .

(c) Determine the impulse by integration.

(II) The force on a bullet along the barrel of a firearm is given by the formula F = [740 ― (2.3 x 10⁵ s⁻¹ ) t] N over the time interval t = 0 to t = 3.0 x 10⁻³ s .

(a) Plot a graph of F versus t for t = 0 to t = 3.0 ms .
