Question

what is the definition of impulse in physics?
the energy transferred during a collision
the product of mass and velocity
the force applied divided by time
the change in momentum of an object

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Impulse in physics is defined as the change in momentum of an object, which can also be expressed as the product of force and the time interval over which the force acts. The other options are incorrect: energy transferred in a collision relates to work/kinetic energy, mass times velocity is momentum, and force divided by time is not a standard physics quantity related to impulse.

Answer:

D. The change in momentum of an object
