Please help with calculating the impusle, thanks!
Having calculated the impact and rebound velocities of the ping pong ball and the tennis ball calculate the rebounding impulse:
1.Measure the weight of the balls and determine their mass.
Tennis ball: 0.57 kg Ping Pong Ball: 0.00246 kg
The impulse, I, is equal to the change in momentum, Pf-Pi. Note the sign change, i.e., going down is negative and up is positive. The unit for momentum is kg-m/s. The change is momentum, impulse, is often givens the equivalent unit of N-S, Newton-Second
5. Three blocks, each with mass m, are connected by strings and are pulled to the right along the surface
of a frictionless table with a constant force of magnitude F. The tensions in the strings connecting the
masses are T1 and T2 as shown.
