Question

10N force isn’t applied to a hockey puck over a period of 0.1s. What is the change in momentum of the hockey puck

Answer 1

Answer:

$\Delta p = 1.0 \ \rm N.s$

Explanation:

Given data:

Force, $F = 10 \ \rm N$

Time period, $t = 0.1 \ s$

The change in momentum experienced by the puck can be given as,

$\Delta p = F \times t$

$\Delta p = 10 \ \rm N \times 0.1 \ s$

$\Delta p = 1.0 \ \rm N.s$
