Answer:

30 kg·
(m)/(s)

Step-by-step explanation:

Impulse is equal to the average force multiplied by the elapsed time, or

J=
F_(av)Δt

Your average force
F_(av) is 50 newtons because it was a constant force. Your elapsed time Δt was 0.6 seconds.

Multiply these values and you get an impulse of 30 kg·
(m)/(s)
