Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of the ball, m = 1.2 kg
Initial speed of the ball, u = 10 m/s
Height of the floor from ground, h = 32 m
(a) Let v is the final speed of the ball. It can be calculated using the conservation of energy as :



v = -25.04 m/s (negative as it rebounds)
The impulse acting on the ball is equal to the change in momentum. It can be calculated as :


J = -42.048 kg-m/s
(b) Time of contact, t = 0.02 s
Let F is the average force on the floor from by the ball. Impulse acting on an object is given by :



F = 0.8409 N
Hence, this is the required solution.
Tectonic plates is the unscrambled phrase in that jumble.
It may be thinner and more dense? I’m not too experienced in the study of Earth’s crust. However, I know enough to remember that the earths crust is thin.
