newtons second law can be rearranged to show that the _ is equal to the _.
momentum... impulse
change in momentum... change in impulse
change in momentum... impulse
momentum... change in impulse

Explanation:

Newton's second law is \(F = ma\). Acceleration \(a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}\), so \(F=\frac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t}\). Then \(F\Delta t = m\Delta v\). The left - hand side \(F\Delta t\) is the impulse (\(J = F\Delta t\)), and the right - hand side \(m\Delta v=\Delta p\) (change in momentum).

Answer:

change in momentum... impulse
