Exercise 2
Impulse of a time-varying force
Theory used: Impulse of a forceImpulse-momentum theorem
A body of mass , initially at rest on a smooth horizontal plane, is pushed by a horizontal force of fixed direction and magnitude , with in newtons and in seconds, for . Compute the impulse of the force and the velocity of the body at time .
