6.3.B—Describe the angular impulse delivered to an object or rigid system by a torque

Describe the angular impulse delivered to an object or rigid system by a torque.

• Angular impulse is defined as the product of the torque exerted on an object or rigid system and the time interval during which the torque is exerted. Relevant equation: angulari mpluse=
• Angular impulse has the same direction as the torque imparting it.
• The angular impulse delivered to an object or rigid system by a torque can be found from the area under the curve of a graph of the torque as a function of time.
