A hockey player shoots a puck, exerting a constant force of 30.0 N on the hockey puck for 0.16 seconds. What is the magnitude of the impulse given to the puck?

190 kg ∙ m/s
98 kg ∙ m/s
9.6 kg ∙ m/s
4.8 kg ∙ m/s

Impulse is force x time.

One of your choices will meet that criterion.

In case you are confused about units,
1 kg m/s = 1 Newton-second

To calculate the magnitude of the impulse given to the puck, we can use the formula for impulse:

Impulse = Force × Time

Given:
Force = 30.0 N
Time = 0.16 seconds

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

Impulse = 30.0 N × 0.16 seconds

Now, let's solve this equation:

Impulse = 4.8 N·s or kg·m/s

Hence, the correct answer is 4.8 kg·m/s.
