well.....the question is like...a car is travelling around a circular track....then will it hav a non zero impulse or not.......no mention of the angular or linear impulse.....what do u think should be the answer????

firstly your question does not seem to explain everything..
wat impulse are u talking about?? angular impulse? or normal impulse??

Angular impulse = integral(Torque) dt = change of angular momentum
Linear impulse = integral(Force) dt = change of linear momentum

angular impulse does not change as the angle between the velocity and the radius is always 90 degrees tot he radius vector.. but this the case of a uniform circular motion
and linear impulse keeps on changing as the velocity vector keeps on changing its direction
