How to Calculate and Solve for Impulse | Motion

The image above represents impulse.

To compute for impulse, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are force (f) and time (t).

The formula for calculating impulse:

I = Ft

Where;

I = Impulse
F = Force
t = Time

Let’s solve an example;
Given that the force is 28 and the time is 14. Find the impulse?

This implies that;

F = Force = 28
t = Time = 14

I = Ft
I = 28 x 14
I = 392

Therefore, the impulse is 392 Ns.

Calculating the Force when the Impulse and the Time is Given.

F = I / t

Where;

F = Force
I = Impulse
t = Time

Let’s solve an example;
Given that the impulse is 60 and the time is 10. Find the force?

This implies that;

I = Impulse = 60
t = Time = 10

F = I / t
F = 60 / 10
F = 6

Therefore, the force is 6 N.

How to Calculate and Solve for Final Velocity | Motion

The image above represents final velocity.

To compute for final velocity, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are initial velocity (u), acceleration (a) and time (t).

The formula for calculating final velocity:

v = u + at

Where;

v = Final Velocity
u = Initial Velocity
a = Acceleration
t = Time

Let’s solve an example;
Find the Final velocity when the initial velocity is 12, acceleration is 9 and the time is 24.

This implies that;

u = Initial Velocity = 12
a = Acceleration = 9
t = Time = 24

v = u + at
v = 12 + (9 x 24)
v = 12 + 216
v = 228

Therefore, the final velocity is 228 m/s.

Calculating the Initial Velocity when the Final Velocity, the Acceleration and the Time is Given.

u = v – at

Where;

u = Initial Velocity
v = Final Velocity
a = Acceleration
t = Time

Let’s solve an example;
Find the Initial Velocity when the Final Velocity is 32, the acceleration is 12 and the time is 2.

This implies that;

v = Final Velocity = 32
a = Acceleration = 12
t = Time = 2

u = v – at
u = 32 – (12 x 2)
u = 32 – 24
u = 8

a = (v – u) / t
a = (21 – 10) / 8
a = 11 / 8
a = 1.375

Therefore, the acceleration is 1.375 m/s².

Calculating the Initial Velocity when the Acceleration, the Final Velocity and the Time is Given.

u = v – at

Where;

u = Initial Velocity
a = Acceleration
v = Final Velocity

This implies that;

u = Initial Velocity = 21
t = Time = 15
a = Acceleration = 10

S = ut + 0.5at²
S = (21 x 15) + (0.5 x 10 x 15²)
S = 315 + (0.5 x 10 x 225)
S = 315 + (1125)
S = 1440

Therefore, the distance covered is 1440 m .

Calculating the Initial Velocity when the Distance Covered, the Acceleration and the Time is Given.

u = S – 0.5at2 / t

Where;

u = Initial Velocity
S = Distance Covered
t = Time
a = Acceleration

Let’s solve an example;
Find the initial velocity when the distance covered is 48 with a time of 8 and an acceleration of 9.

This implies that;

S = Distance Covered = 48
t = Time = 8
a = Acceleration = 9

u = S – 0.5at2 / t
u = 48 – 0.5(9)(82) / 8
u = 48 – 0.5(9)(64) / 8
u = 48 – 288 / 8
u = – 240 / 8
u = – 30

Therefore, the initial velocity is – 30 m/s.

How to Calculate and Apply Simple Interest, Principal, Rate and Time

What is Simple Interest?

Simple interest is a method of calculating the interest charge on a loan or bill. Simple interest is determined by multiplying the interest rate by the principal by time which is normally in years (per annual) but could be in months, days, weeks etc during the specified time frame.

Simple Interest (S.I.) = (P x r x t) / 100

Where P stands for Principal, r stands for interest rate and t stands for time.

How to Solve and Apply Simple Interest.

There are a number of different reasons that could make one want to carry out a simple interest operation. One of them being that you want to lend money to your friend to start a business and you want your money to work for you and reproduce during the course of the loan.
