Question

A student drops an egg from the roof of their house onto a trampoline. The egg feels a change in momentum of 2.2 kg^ * m/s in 1.1s How many Newtons of force did the egg feel?

Answer 1

F = m a = m v / t where v is the change in velocity in time t

F = p / t since m v is equal to p

F = 2.2 (kg m / s) / 1.1 s = 2 kg-m / s^2 = 2 N

Or you can use the impulse equation
