Question
An air bag applies a force of 6100 N to bring about a change in momentum of 5250 kg m/s. How much time did it act over?
Answers
GPT 3.5
We can use the formula for impulse:
Impulse = Force * Time
We are given the force as 6100 N and the change in momentum as 5250 kg m/s.
Thus,
Impulse = 6100 N * Time
5250 kg m/s = 6100 N * Time
To find the time, we can rearrange the equation:
Time = (5250 kg m/s) / (6100 N)
Time ≈ 0.861 seconds
Impulse = Force * Time
We are given the force as 6100 N and the change in momentum as 5250 kg m/s.
Thus,
Impulse = 6100 N * Time
5250 kg m/s = 6100 N * Time
To find the time, we can rearrange the equation:
Time = (5250 kg m/s) / (6100 N)
Time ≈ 0.861 seconds
