                                         Potential energy  =  (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

Divide each side by (G x H) :      Mass  =  PE / (G x H) 

PE = 6 joules
Gravity = 9.8 m/s
Height = 3 m
                                                     Mass  =  6 / (9.8 x 3) =

                                                                     6 / (29.4)  =  <em>0.204 kg</em>
 
                                  (weighs about 2 newtons or 7.2 ounces on Earth)

A basketball player drops a 0.4-kg basketball vertically so that it is traveling at 5.7 m/s when it reaches the floor. The ball
Alik [6]

Answer:

(a) p = 3.4 kg-m/s (b) 37.78 N.

Explanation:

Mass of a basketball, m = 0.4 kg

Initial velocity of the ball, u = -5.7 m/s (as it comes down so it is negative)

It rebounds upward at a speed of 2.8 m/s  (as it rebounds so positive)

(a) Change in momentum = final momentum - initial momentum

p = m(v-u)

p = 0.4 (2.8-(-5.7))

p = 3.4 kg-m/s

(b) Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = 3.4

We have, t = 0.09 s

F=\dfrac{3.4}{0.09}\\\\F=37.78\ N

Hence, this is the required solution.
