Does a moving object have impulse?
Question asked by: ali shah
Asked on: 12 May 2008

Yes, as this is the product of force and time.
A moving object is subject to force otherwise it would be at rest, and it is moving through time, therefore it does have impulse.
Not sure this is right by the way but that's my limited understanding, physics not my strong point though!
