The momentum of the ball when it hits the ground is 4.89 kg.m/s.

The given parameters;

mass of the baseball, m = 0.145 kg
height of fall of the ball, h = 58 m

The final velocity of the ball when it hits the ground is calculated as follows;

$v_f ^2 = v_0^2 + 2gh\\\\v_f^2 = 0 + 2gh\\\\v_f^2 = 2gh\\\\v_f = \sqrt{2gh} \\\\v_f = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 58}\\\\v_f = 33.72 \ m/s$

The momentum of the ball when it hits the ground is calculated as follows;

P = mv

P = 0.145 x 33.72

P = 4.89 kg.m/s

Thus, the momentum of the ball when it hits the ground is 4.89 kg.m/s.

Answer:

An unconformity shows where some rock layers have been lost because of erosion. To date rock layers, geologists first give a relative age to a layer of rock at one location and then give the same age to matching layers at other locations. Certain fossils, called index fossils, help geologists match rock layers.

What are possible units for impulse? Check all that apply.

Neporo4naja [7]

Units of impulse: N • s, kg • meters per second

Explanation:

Impulse is defined in two ways:

Impulse is defined as the product between the force exerted in a collision and the duration of the collision:

$I=F\Delta t$

where

F is the force

$\Delta t$ is the time interval

Since the force is measured in Newtons (N) and the time is measured in seconds (s), the units for the impulse are

$[I] = [N][s]$

So,

N • s

Impulse is also defined as the change in momentum experienced by an object:

$I=\Delta p$

where the change in momentum is given by

$\Delta p = m\Delta v$

where m is the mass and $\Delta v$ is the change in velocity.

The mass is measured in kilograms (kg) while the change in velocity is measured in metres per second (m/s), therefore the units for impulse are

$[I]=[kg][m/s]$

so,

kg • meters per second

The displacement vector A and B when added together , give the resultant vector R so that R= A+B use the data in the drawing and

Salsk061 [2.6K]

The addition of vectors involve both magnitude and direction. In this case, we make use of a triangle to visualize the problem. The length of two sides were given while the measure of the angle between the two sides can be derived. We then assign variables for each of the given quantities.

Let:

b = length of one side = 8 m
c = length of one side = 6 m
A = angle between b and c = 90°-25° = 75°

We then use the cosine law to find the length of the unknown side. The cosine law results to the formula: a^2 = b^2 + c^2 -2*b*c*cos(A). Substituting the values, we then have: a = sqrt[(8)^2 + (6)^2 -2(8)(6)cos(75°)]. Finally, we have a = 8.6691 m.

Next, we make use of the sine law to get the angle, B, which is opposite to the side B. The sine law results to the formula: sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b and consequently, sin(75)/8.6691 = sin(B)/8. We then get B = 63.0464°. However, the direction of the resultant vector is given by the angle Θ which is Θ = 90° - 63.0464° = 26.9536°.

In summary, the resultant vector has a magnitude of 8.6691 m and it makes an angle equal to 26.9536° with the x-axis.
