If a body (otherwise isolated) receives a single (nonzero) impulse, it must change all of the following except its
A) position.
B) kinetic energy.
C) momentum.
D) rest mass (inertia).

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An impulse changes an object's momentum and can also change its kinetic energy and position as a result of that change in momentum. However, an impulse does not change an object's rest mass (inertia), which is an intrinsic property of the object not affected by external forces.
