Question

6. A stone of 5 kg mass falls from a height of
0.4 m. What is the momentum transferred by the
stone while hitting the ground? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

lets take the case of the stone hitting the ground and not bouncing back so no energy is lost all is transferred to ground

Explanation:

potential energy=m.g.h

assume g=10 eaiser calc.

p.e= 20j

k.e= 1/2mv²

v²= 8

v=√8

p=mv

p(momentum)= 5√8 is a
