17
Q

Impulse meaning

A

The size of a force x the length of time it acts for. It equals the change of momentum of the object

18
Q

Units for impulse

A

Ns

19
Q

Impulse equation

A

Force x time

20
Q

How to calculate change in momentum

A

Force = change in momentum/change in time

21
Q

State the principle of moments

A

If an object is balanced the total anticlockwise moments equal the total clockwise moments

22
Q

What effect does drag have on motion

A

Resists motion
