Expert Solution

Step 1

IMPULSE:-

We know that the impulse is defined as the force and change in time.

$Impulse = F ∆ t where F is the force ∆ t is the change in time$

We also can say that the change in momentum is defined as the impulse. the term "impulse" is used to explain or measure the effect of a force working overtime time to modify an object's momentum. It is denoted by the letter J and is usually measured in Newton seconds or kilograms per second.
