Impulse & Momentum Conservation

Force is applied to a body of mass 3 kg at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface as shown in the force against time (F-t) graph. The speed of the body after 1 s is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

Impulse = area under the $F$ – $t$ graph $= \Delta p$ .
Area $= 8 \times 0.5 + 4 \times 0.5 = 4 + 2 = 6$ N s
$v = \frac{6}{3} = 2$ m/s
So the answer is (d) $2$ m/s.
