Detailed Solution

We can say that force is the rate of change of momentum. That means, the amount of change in momentum of an item is related to the applied corresponding force and moves in the same direction. As a result, the rate at which momentum changes equals the force is applied. We know that Momentum=mass×velocity . So, by differentiating this equation of momentum with respect to time then we get force=mass×acceleration. Therefore, it is true that the force measures rate of change momentum of a body.
