Question

Identical forces act for the same length of time on twodifferent masses. The change in momentum of the smaller massis: a. smaller than the change in momentum of the larger mass, butnot zero b.larger than the change in momentum of the larger mass c. equal to the change in momentum of the larger mass d. zero e. not enough info given I missed this question on an exam and can't seem to understandwhy. please help!

Explanation / Answer

impulse = F*t = P (change in momentum) since F and t is the same, the change in momentum is thesame both cases. answer is c
