Answer:
I = 0.5 kg.m/s
Explanation:
given,
mass of the cart = 0.5 Kg
initial speed of cart, u= 0.6 m/s
final speed of cart, v = - 0.4 m/s
impulse of the cart = ?
impulse is equal to the change of the momentum of the cart.
I = m u - m v
I = m (u - v)
I = 0.5 (0.6 - (-0.4))
I = 0.5 x 1
I = 0.5 kg.m/s
impulse on the cart is equal to 0.5 kg.m/s
