Question 182 of 200

Multiple Choice

Force

87.05%

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law in terms of momentum,

F=Δp/t

where F is the applied force

Δp is the change in momentum

t is the time taken

so rate of change of momentum/time will be force.

Momentum=mass x velocity

Power=Work done/time or Force x velocity

Acceleration=Rate of change of velocity/time

Momentum

5.61%

Explanation:

This is a part of the equation so it's incorrect

Power

4.28%

Explanation:

This option is incorrect due to the equation

Acceleration

3.06%

Explanation:

This is incorrect because of the equation.

Explanation

The force is defined as the rate of change of momentum which, if simplified, can be written as F=ma.
