An air bag applies a force of 4900 N to bring about a change in momentum of 4800 kg m/s. How much time did it act ove
The time the airbag acted over can be calculated using the formula:
Force = (Change in momentum) / Time
Rearranging the formula, we get:
Time = (Change in momentum) / Force
Time = 4800 kg m/s / 4900 N
Time ≈ 0.9796 seconds
