A 1.5 kg ball has a velocity of 12 m/s just before it strikes the floor. Find the impulse on the ball if the ball bounces up wit
Andru [333]

Hi there!

Recall:

Impulse = Change in momentum

I = Δp = mΔv = m(vf - vi)

Let the direction TOWARDS the floor be POSITIVE, and AWAY be NEGATIVE.

Plug in the givan values:

Δp = 1.5(-10 - 12) = -33 Ns

**OR, the magnitude: |-33| = 33 Ns

Assume that a friend hands you a 10-newton box to hold for her. If you hold the box without moving it at a height of 10 meters a
malfutka [58]

Answer:

100 Joules

Explanation:

Applying,

W = mgh................... Equation 1

Where W = workdone to hold the box above the ground, mg = weight of the box, h = height of the box.

From the question,

Given: mg = 10 newtons, h = 10 meters.

Substitute these values into equation 1

W = 10×10

W = 100 Joules.

Hence the amount of workdone is 100 Joules
