Impulse Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Impulse = Force*Time Taken to Travel
i = F*t
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Impulse - (Measured in Kilogram Meter per Second) - Impulse is the change in momentum of an object when a force is applied to it for a short period of time, resulting in its motion.
Force - (Measured in Newton) - Force is a push or pull that causes an object to change its motion or shape, resulting in acceleration or deceleration.
Time Taken to Travel - (Measured in Second) - Time Taken to Travel is the duration required for an object to cover a certain distance under the influence of kinetic forces.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Force: 2.5 Newton --> 2.5 Newton No Conversion Required
Time Taken to Travel: 5 Second --> 5 Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

i = F*t --> 2.5*5

Evaluating ... ...

i = 12.5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

12.5 Kilogram Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

12.5 Kilogram Meter per Second <-- Impulse

Impulse = Force*Time Taken to Travel
i = F*t

Why is Impulse important?

The impulse experienced by the object equals the change in momentum of the object. Because of the impulse-momentum theorem, we can make a direct connection between how a force acts on an object over time and the motion of the object. One of the reasons why impulse is important and useful is that in the real world, forces are often not constant.

How to Calculate Impulse?

Impulse calculator uses Impulse = Force*Time Taken to Travel to calculate the Impulse, Impulse formula is defined as the change in momentum of an object that occurs when a force is applied over a specific time period, resulting in a sudden increase or decrease in the object's velocity, often observed in collisions or explosions. Impulse is denoted by i symbol.

How to calculate Impulse using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Impulse, enter Force (F) & Time Taken to Travel (t) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Impulse calculation can be explained with given input values -> 12.5 = 2.5*5.

FAQ

What is Impulse?

Impulse formula is defined as the change in momentum of an object that occurs when a force is applied over a specific time period, resulting in a sudden increase or decrease in the object's velocity, often observed in collisions or explosions and is represented as i = F*t or Impulse = Force*Time Taken to Travel. Force is a push or pull that causes an object to change its motion or shape, resulting in acceleration or deceleration & Time Taken to Travel is the duration required for an object to cover a certain distance under the influence of kinetic forces.

How to calculate Impulse?

Impulse formula is defined as the change in momentum of an object that occurs when a force is applied over a specific time period, resulting in a sudden increase or decrease in the object's velocity, often observed in collisions or explosions is calculated using Impulse = Force*Time Taken to Travel. To calculate Impulse, you need Force (F) & Time Taken to Travel (t). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Force & Time Taken to Travel and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
