Impulse
* Impulse is the change in momentum of an object.
* It's calculated as the product of the force acting on an object and the time interval over which the force acts: Impulse = Force × Time
The Scenario
You're asking what happens to impulse if the force stays the same (10 N) but the time doubles.
The Answer
* The impulse will double.
* Since impulse is directly proportional to time, if you double the time, you double the impulse.
Example
* Scenario 1: Force = 10 N, Time = 2 seconds, Impulse = 10 N * 2 s = 20 Ns
* Scenario 2: Force = 10 N, Time = 4 seconds, Impulse = 10 N * 4 s = 40 Ns
Key Takeaway
A larger impulse means a greater change in momentum. So, applying the same force for a longer time will result in a larger change in the object's motion.
