I assume there are choices to this question that you forgot to include. No matter, I could just lay out the concept so that you can understand the gist.

The best way to approach this is to know the definition of momentum. In physics, momentum is always defined in terms of equation. For momentum, it is the product of the mass and velocity. Therefore, any increase of these two parameters would promote greater momentum. The greater the mass paired with the faster the velocity, the greater the momentum.

Nerve impulses in a human body travel at a speed of about 100 m/s. Suppose a woman accidentally steps barefoot on a thumbtack. A
sasho [114]
T = 0.017 s

From the foot to the brain is almost the same as the height. We are not given the height of the woman, but to find "about" how much time, we need a height to work with.

She *could* be 1.7 m <- height = distance

Formula for speed, where k = speed, d = distance, t = time
k = d/t
Rearrange to solve for time:
t = d/k
Substitute known values:
t = (1.7 m) / (100 m/s)
Solve:
t = 0.017 s

Therefore, it takes about 0.017s for the impulse to travel from the foot to the brain.

While riding in a hot air balloon, which is steadily descending at a speed of 1.01 m/s, you accidentally drop your cell phone?
mote1985 [20]

While riding in a hot air balloon, which is steadily at a speed of 1.01 m/s, and your phone accidentally falls.

<span>(a)    </span>The speed of your phone after 4 s is:

V= u + at

V= 1.01 + (9.8)(4)

V= 40.21 m/s

<span>(b)   </span>The balloon is ____ far:

V = u + at

V= 1.01 + (9.8)(1)

V=10.81 –distance at 1 one second

V= u + at

V= 1.01 + (9.8)(2)

V= 20.61-distance at 2 seconds

V= u+ at

V= 30.41- distance at 3 seconds

V= 40.21- distance at 4 seconds

D= 102.04 m

<span>(c)    </span>If the balloon is rising steadily at 1.01 m/s:

V= -1.1 m/s

<span> </span>
