A 0.70 kg ball moving horizontally at 5.0 m/s strikes a vertical wall and rebounds with speed 2.0 m/s. What is the magnitude of the change in its linear momentum

4.9 kg.m/s.

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m = 0.7 kg

Initial speed , u = 5 m/s ( Towards + x direction)

Final speed ,v= -2 m/s ( Towards - x direction)

We know that linear momentum is given as

P = Mass x velocity

Change in the linear momentum ΔP will be

ΔP = m ( v - u)

Now by putting the values in the above equation ,we get'

ΔP= 0.7 ( -2 - 5 )  kg.m/s

ΔP= - 4.9 kg.m/s

The magnitude of the change in the linear momentum will be 4.9 kg.m/s.

when heated, the valance electrons increased their speed and transferred the heat from electron to electron.   i just took the test.

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.
