1) Consider an object with a mass of 100 kg moving at 1 0 m/s. Its momentum is therefore 1000 kg m/s. How can this object be stopped? It can be stopped quickly by applying a large force or slowly by applying a small force.
a. The object mentioned above has a momentum of 1000 kg m/s. A force of 200N is applied to the object. How quickly will the object stop?
b. The object has a force of 10 N applied to it. How quickly does the object stop now?
