It often requires STANDARD reaction time
Answer:
Explanation:
Impulse of reaction force of floor = change in momentum
Velocity of impact = √ 2gh₁
= √ 2 x 9.8 x 1.5 = 5.4 m /s.
velocity of rebound = √2gh₂
= √ 2x 9.8 x 1
= 4.427 m / s.
Initial momentum = .050 x 5.4 = .27 kg m/s
Final momentum = .05 x 4.427 = .22 kg.m/s
change in momentum = .27 - .22 = .05 kg m/s
Impulse = .05 kg m /s
Impulse = force x time
force = impulse / time
.05 / .015 = 3.33 N.
kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²
Initial kinetic energy = 1/2 x .05 x 5.4²
= 0.729 J
Final Kinetic Energy =1/2 x .05 x 4.427²
= 0.489 J
Change in Kinetic energy =0 .24 J
Lost kinetic energy is due to conversion of energy into sound light etc.
In energy point of view, the larger stone had more potential energy before dropping. impacting the water, the larger one, having more kinetic energy which changed from potential energy, tranfered energy to the water and formed wave. the amplitude of the wave indicate the energy of the wave. more energy more amplitude.
Cl2 is the answer. Hope this helps you.
