Question

cart a is pulled with a 2 newton force for 2 seconds, and cart b is pulled with a 1 newton force for 3 seconds. which cart experiences the greatest impulse? cart a they are the same cart b

Explanation:

Step1: Calcular impulso para Carro A

El impulso ($J$) se define como $J = F\times t$. Para el Carro A, $F = 2\ N$ y $t = 2\ s$, entonces $J_A=2\ N\times2\ s = 4\ N\cdot s$.

Step2: Calcular impulso para Carro B

Para el Carro B, $F = 1\ N$ y $t = 3\ s$, entonces $J_B=1\ N\times3\ s = 3\ N\cdot s$.

Step3: Comparar impulsos

Como $J_A = 4\ N\cdot s$ y $J_B = 3\ N\cdot s$, el Carro A experimenta un impulso mayor.

Answer:

A. Carro A
