Is impulse exerted on an object related to the object's mass?
-
No, but the effect of the impulse is a function of the object's mass. An impulse is an external force.
For example, a ball bouncing on a wall is an impulse. The amount of impulse is the change of momentum OF THE BALL, and the mass OF THE BALL and it's change in speed determines the impulse. The mass OF THE WALL has nothing to do with it.
