Answer:
17.565 kgm/s
Explanation:
Momentum = mass × velocity
I = mv..................... Equation 1
But we can calculate the value of v using the equation of motion under gravity.
v² = u²+2gs............. Equation 2
Where u = initial velocity, s = maximum heigth, g = acceleration due to gravity.
Given: u = 0 m/s (at the maximum heigth), s = 7.0 m.
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 2
v² = 0²+ 2×7×9.8
v² = 137.2
v = √137.2
v = 11.71 m/s.
Also given: m = 1.50 kg
substitute these values into equation 1
Therefore,
I = 1.5×11.71
I = 17.565 kgm/s
