Answer:

The impulse on the ball when it hit the floor is equal to 0.133 kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 14 g = 0.014 kg

It is dropped from a height of 1.5 m and it only bounces back to a height of 0.85 m. The conservation of energy is applied here.

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

If h = 1.5 m

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v_1=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.5}

v_1=5.42\ m/s

If h = 0.85 m

v_2=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.85}

v_2=-4.08\ m/s (as the ball bounces back so it is negative)

The impulse on the ball when it hit the floor is equal to the change in momentum of the ball as :

J=m(v_2-v_1)

J=0.014\times (-4.08-5.42)

J = -0.133 kg-m/s

So, the impulse on the ball when it hit the floor is equal to 0.133 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

<span>Remember that  impulse = change in momentum 

this means we compute the momentum of the ball just before impression and just after; we know the mass, so we find the speeds 

the ball falls for 1.5m and will achieve a speed given by energy conservation: 

1/2 mv^2 = mgh => v=sqrt[2gh]=5.42m/s 

since it rises only to 0.85 m, we compute the initial speed after power from the same equation and get 
v(after)=sqrt[2*9.81m/s/s*0.85m] = 4.0837 m... 

now, recall that momentum is a vector, so that the momentum down has one sign and the momentum up has a positive sign, so we have 

impulse = delta (mv) = m delta v = 0.014 kx (4.08m/s - (-5.42m/s) = 0.133 kgm/s </span>

Jeff is a landscaping contractor and lifts a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging a board under the rock. Jeff weighs 150 pounds
jonny [76]

Answer: 4

The mechanical advantage is the ratio of the force exerted  by the object to the force applied to do work on it.

Here, Jeff tried to lift a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging board under the rock. Jeff who weighs 150 pounds uses all his weight to exert force on lever and lift rock.

Mechanical advantage, M.A.=\frac{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}rock}{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}Jeff}=\frac{600 pounds}{150 pounds}=4.

Therefore, the mechanical advantage that lever provided to Jeff in lifting rock is 4.

According to Dalton’s atomic theory
NARA [144]
Dalton's atomic theory was the first complete attempt to describe all matter in terms of atoms and their properties. ... The first part of his theory states that all matter is made of atoms, which are indivisible. The second part of the theory says all atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties.

Where will water evaporate from?
Elodia [21]

Water will evaporate from any water source and life forms. The answer is letter C. An application of heat into water will cause the water to evaporate. This is because the intermolecular forces of attraction of water can be broken by sufficient energy application.

atroni [7]

Answer:

Balances and Scales

A balance compares an object with a known mass to the object in question. One example of a balance is the triple beam balance. The standard unit of measure for mass is based on the metric system and is typically denoted as kilograms or grams.
