Problem

During the launch of a toy rocket, the vertical force exerted by its motor varies with time according to F(t)=2.0×106 t (0.020−t)F(t)=2.0\times10^{6}\,t\,(0.020-t) newton for 0≤t≤0.020 s0\le t\le0.020\,\text{s} (with tt in seconds). Find the total impulse imparted to the rocket in this interval.
