A soft foam block of mass m slides without friction in the
positive x-direction with speed v. At time t = 0, a student briefly
pushes the block with a force probe in the positive x-direction. The
graph to the right shows the force probe's measurements as a
function of time during the push. Which of the following statements
is true about the block's momentum between t = 0 and t = t;?

The true statement about the blocks momentum is : The momentum of the block has increased by approximately 1/2 F₀t₁  ( B )

Change in Momentum

Given that the change in momentum is equivalent to the Area which is under the force time graph

where :

Area under the force time graph = 1/2 F₀t₁ . Therefore we can conclude that the momentum of the block has increased by an equivalent value of the are under the time graph.

Hence we can conclude that the true statement about the blocks momentum is The momentum of the block has increased by approximately 1/2 F₀t₁ .
