Question

Give short account about the effect of an impulse on a rigid body that is free to move in laminar motion.

Answer 1

in every day life all object move due impulse .

impuslse is basicaly very very short time high magnitude force .

due to impulse momentum of object change in very short interval of time .

example when a blower throw ball and batsman hit it direction of motion of ball change in very very small interval and ball goes upto long distance . This is due to impulse provided by bat on ball .

another example - when a ball fall on ground instantly is change direction and come back in air . Here ground provide high impulse who change direction of motion from downward motion to upward .

impulse = force . time = change in momentum .
