IMPULSE
When a large force acts upon a body for a very short interval of time and for this interval the product F x ∆t is called impulse. Thus product of force and time for which force acts is called impulse of the force. Impulse =F x ∆t Impulse is a vector quantity, having same direction as that of forceExplanation:Consider Force
in a short interval of time ∆t, the We can write:-
Units:
The unit of impulse is Ns and its dimension is same as that of momentum.
