It could be radiation because radiation means <span>the emission of energy as electromagnetic wave, but potential fits it best</span>
"Midnight" means looking away from the Sun. But in 6 months from April to October the earth goes halfway around the Sun. So midnight in April and midnight in October are exactly opposite directions.
In spring mass system we know that angular frequency is given as
f = 8.38 Hz
now we know that speed of SHM at its extreme position is given by
here we know that
A = 17.5 cm
so maximum speed is 9.21 m/s
Answer:
Momentum is given by
p
=
m
v
. Impulse is the change of momentum,
I
=
Δ
p
and is also equal to force times time:
I
=
F
t
. Rearranging,
F
=
I
t
=
Δ

Explanation:
Momentum before the collision is

Assuming the truck comes to a complete halt, the momentum after the collision is

The change in momentum,

This is called the impulse:
I
=
Δ
p
. Impulse is also equal (check the units) to force times time:
I
=
F
t
.
We can rearrange this expression to make

The negative sign just means the force acting is in the opposite direction to the initial momentum.
(This will be the average force acting during the collision: collisions are chaotic so the force is unlikely to be constant.)
