What is impulse?

Change in momentum when force acts

What is the impulse equation for a constant force FF acting for time tt?

I=F×tI = F \times t

Which equation expresses impulse as change in momentum?

I=mvmuI = mv - mu

Why are signs crucial in impulse calculations?

Impulse and velocity are vector quantities

How do you find impulse when force varies with time?

Integrate force over time: I=FdtI = \int F \, dt

What are the units of impulse?

Newton-seconds (Ns)

If object A exerts impulse 5 Ns on B, what impulse does B exert on A?

5 Ns in opposite direction

On a smooth plane, what happens to momentum parallel to the plane?

It is conserved
