Impulse

                  

This week for my physics blog, I’m going to talk about impulse. Impulse is also known as the change in momentum and is directly related to how much force/momentum one feels after the collision. The more force that’s applied to another object, the greater the change in momentum and vice versa. Impulse can be calculated as I = (F)(Δt) where “I” equals impulse, “F” equals force and “Δt” equals change in time. My picture displays impulse because these karate kids display a greater amount of impulse because they went from rest to punching the air very hard. Although you can’t really see it in the picture, both their hands and legs have moved from a resting position.
