A firework is launched with a force of 700 N and a momentum of 200 kg-m/s. How much time before is explodes?

Respuesta :

Answer:

t = 0.28 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on a firework, F = 700 N

The momentum of the firework, p =200 kg-m/s

We need to find the time before it explodes. Ket the time be t. We know that, the rate of change of momentum is equal to external frce. So,

[tex]F=\dfrac{P}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{P}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{200}{700}\\t=0.28\ s[/tex]

So, the required time is equal to 0.28 seconds.
