Answer:
t = 0.28 seconds
Explanation:
Given that,
Force acting on a firework, F = 700 N
The momentum of the firework, p =200 kg-m/s
We need to find the time before it explodes. Ket the time be t. We know that, the rate of change of momentum is equal to external frce. So,
[tex]F=\dfrac{P}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{P}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{200}{700}\\t=0.28\ s[/tex]
So, the required time is equal to 0.28 seconds.
