Questions and Answers

Which of the following is the correct definition of impulse in classical mechanics?

  • Impulse is the rate of change of momentum of an object.
  • Impulse is the force acting on an object.
  • Impulse is the integral of force with respect to time.
  • Impulse is the change in momentum of an object. (correct)

    Study Notes

    Impulse in Classical Mechanics

    • Impulse is the change in momentum of an object.
    • The SI unit of impulse is Newton-seconds (Ns).

    Relationship Between Impulse and Force

    • According to Newton's second law of motion, the impulse equals the force multiplied by the time over which it is applied.

    Dimensionally Equivalent Unit of Momentum

    • The dimensionally equivalent unit of momentum is kilogram-meters per second (kg·m/s).

    Calculating Impulse of a Varying Force

    • The impulse delivered by a varying force is calculated as the integral of the force with respect to time.
