Find the magnitude of the impulse due to the collision

Reference no: EM13651660

In a particular crash test, an automobile of mass 1217 kg collides with a wall and bounces back off the wall. The x components of the initial and final speeds of the automobile are 15 m/s and 3 m/s, respectively. If the collision lasts for 0.12 s, find the magnitude of the impulse due to the collision. Answer in units of kg · m/s.
