Physics Problem Solver Walk-through Momentum Collisions - Solving Momentum / Impulse Problems 6

A 0.50 kg object is at rest. A 3.00 N force to the right acts on the object
during a time interval of 1.50 s.
a. What is the velocity of the object at the end of this interval?
b. At the end of this interval, a constant force of 4.00 N to the left is applied for 3.00 s. What is the velocity at the end of the 3.00 s?

The best way to learn how to solve a Physics problem is to understand examples. NO AUDIO.

All problems are solved following the same basic problem-solving techniques: Break down the problem to identify given and unknown variables. Draw a model if needed. Identify relevant equations and concepts. Solve for the unknown variables. Evaluate equations with given variables.

Follow along as I break down the question and then use standard equations to solve the problem. FF, Pause, or Rewind as needed.

There are often multiple ways to get to the same answer, so don’t be concerned if your path is different, as long as the final answer is the same.
