The rate of change in momentum can be calculated using the formula:
Rate of change in momentum = mass × acceleration
Given: Mass of the bus (m) = 1000 kg Acceleration (a) = 2 m/s^2
Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
Rate of change in momentum = 1000 kg × 2 m/s^2
Calculating the product:
Rate of change in momentum = 2000 kg·m/s^2
Therefore, the rate of change in momentum for the moving bus is 2000 kg·m/s^2.
