Calculate Change in Velocity: 5.02N, 4kg, 23.3s, 116.966N*s

AI Thread Summary
A force of 5.02N is applied to a 4kg object for 23.3 seconds, resulting in a momentum of 116.966 N*s. The relationship between impulse and momentum indicates that impulse equals force multiplied by time, which equals the change in momentum. To find the change in velocity, the formula Δv = I/m can be used, where I is impulse and m is mass. By applying these principles, the change in velocity can be calculated effectively. Understanding these relationships is crucial for solving similar physics problems.

So you've found the momentum through impulse, how is momentum related to velocity?
 
Impulse, I=F*t= change in momentum= mΔv.

I guess now you know how to solve the problem.

Cheers

Thread 'Help with Time-Independent Perturbation Theory "Good" States Proof'

(Disclaimer: this is not a HW question. I am self-studying, and this felt like the type of question I've seen in this forum. If there is somewhere better for me to share this doubt, please let me know and I'll transfer it right away.) I am currently reviewing Chapter 7 of Introduction to QM by Griffiths. I have been stuck for an hour or so trying to understand the last paragraph of this proof (pls check the attached file). It claims that we can express Ψ_{γ}(0) as a linear combination of...
