Answer:

The change of the momentum of the ball is -19.8\, \frac{mkg}{s}

Explanation:

We should find \varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=\overrightarrow{p_{f}}-\overrightarrow{p_{i}} (1)with \overrightarrow{p_{i}} the initial momentum and \overrightarrow{p_{f}} the final momentum. Linear momentum is defined as \overrightarrow{p}=m\overrightarrow{v}, using that on (1):

\varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=m \overrightarrow{v_{f}}-m \overrightarrow{v_{i}} (2)

It's important to note that momentum and velocity are vectors and direction matters, so if +x direction is the direction towards the wall and the -x direction away the wall \overrightarrow{v_{i}}=+2.2\, \frac{m}{s} and \overrightarrow{v_{f}}=-2.2\, \frac{m}{s} so (2) becomes:

\varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=m(-2.2- (+2.2))=-(4.5)(4.4)

\varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=-19.8\, \frac{mkg}{s}

The popular GPS devices that people use to find directions while driving use which type of satellite system?
inessss [21]

The popular GPS devices that people use to find directions while driving use "Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The umbrella term for all global satellite tracking systems is GNSS i.e Global Satellite Navigation System. This involves satellite constellations circulating over the surface of the earth and continuous signal transmission that allow users to evaluate their location.

A satellite array of 18–30 medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites distributed across several orbital planes typically achieves greater coverage for each network. The specific systems differ, but use > 50 ° orbital inclinations and approximately twelve hours orbital cycles.
