Answer:

Impulse = 22.4 Newton-Seconds

Explanation:

In Physics, the impluse is the force applied to an object for a certain amount of time.

This goes by the formula:

Impluse = Force * Time

Where

Force is in Newtons (n)

and Time is in Seconds (s)

Given,

Force = 280 Newtons (n)

Time = 0.08 Seconds (s)

We can now substitute and find the Impulse:

Impluse = Force * Time

Impulse = 280 * 0.08

Impulse = 22.4 Newton-Seconds
