It is termed as the total impact of force. This is equal to the change in momentum of the body. In other words, impulse is defined as the product of force and a small time in which the force acts.
SI unit of Impulse if N s (Newton Second) or kgm/s.
Impulse is often stated to be the product of the average net force that acts on an object for a ceratin duration.The equation for impulse is given as;
Note : We assume that force is constant over time.
Impulse is a vector quantity like force and it also has direction.
The Impulse-Momentum theorem helps us establish the relation between the two concepts. The theorem basically states that the change that is seen in the momentum of an object is equivalent to the amount of impulse exerted on it.
Basically, you should understand that impulse is a measure of how much the momentum changes. Here we also get an alternative formula which is given as;
Where initial momentum,
final momentum
With this formula,we can further clearly relate impulse to the chnges in the momentum of the object.
Q.A 650 - kilogram rocket is to be speed up from 440 meters per second to 520 meters per second in outer space. If the thrust of the engine is 1200 newtons, for how long must the engine be fired?
Solution: The change in the momentum of the rocket
= (650)(520) - (650)(440) = 52000 kg m/s.
This must be equal to the impulse, so = (1200N)(t) = 52000 kg m/s
Therefore , = 43 s

It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
