NEET Physics Impulse & Momentum MCQ Question
Which of the following combinations about impulse and momentum is correct?
Impulse is the change in momentum of an object and is equal to the product of force and time.
Momentum can only be defined for objects in motion and is independent of mass.
An impulsive force is one that acts for a long duration and produces a small change in momentum.
The total momentum of a system is conserved if no external forces act on it.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Impulse is indeed defined as the change in momentum and is calculated as the product of force and the time duration over which it acts. This aligns with the definition of impulse provided in the NCERT context, while the other options contain inaccuracies regarding momentum and impulsive forces.
