Large force always produces large change in momentum on a body than a small force. Is this correct? |
|
Answer» No. From Newton’s second law, we have. \(\frac{dP}{dt}=F\) …. (i) dP = Fdt …. (ii) From equation (ii), we can infer that a small force acting for a longer time can produce same change in momentum of a body as a large force acting in the same direction for a short time. Hence, the given statement is incorrect. |
