A high-jumper, having just cleared the bar, lands on an air mattress and comes to rest. Had she landed directly on the hard ground, her stopping time would have been much shorter. Using the impulse-momentum theorem as your guide, determine which one of the following statements is correct. a. the air mattress exerts the same impulse, but a greater net average force, on the high-jumper than does the hard ground
b. the air mattress exerts a greater impulse, and a greater net average force, on the high-jumper than does the hard ground
c. the air mattress exerts a smaller impulse, and a smaller net average force, on the high-jumper than does the hard ground
d. the air mattress exerts a greater impulse, but a smaller net average force, on the high-jumper than does the hard ground
e. the air mattress exerts the same impulse, but a smaller net avg force, on the hj than hg

Amerry-go-round of radius r, shown in the figure, is rotating at constant angular speed. the friction in its bearings is so small that it can be ignored. a sandbag of mass m is dropped onto the merry-go-round, at a position designated by r. the sandbag does not slip or roll upon contact with the merry-go-round. how would you rank the following different combinations of m and r on the basis of the angular speed of the merry-go-round after the sandbag "sticks" to the merry-go-round from largest to smallest. a) m = 10kg, r = 0.25r b) m = 20kg, r = 0.25r c) m = 10kg, r = 0.50r d) m = 10kg, r = 1.0r e) m = 15kg, r = 0.75r f) m = 40kg, r = 0.25r
