(a)
Whether the floor imparts the impulse to the person.
Introduction: Impulse is the physical quantity which changes the momentum of the body. When a force is exerted on a body for a short interval of time then the impulse is equal to the product of force and time interval.
(b)
Whether the floor do any work on the person.
Introduction: When the body is displaced in to the direction of applied force then work is said to be done.
(c)
The momentum of the person.
(d)
To explain: Whether the momentum comes from floor or not.
Introduction: The momentum is the product of mass and velocity and it is a vector quantity.
(e)
The kinetic energy of the person.
(f)
Whether the final kinetic energy comes from floor or not.
Introduction: The energy possessed by the body when it is in motion is known as kinetic energy.

- Mick and Rick are twins born on Earth in the year 2175. Rick grows up to be an Earth-bound robotics technician while Mick becomes an intergalactic astronaut. Mick leaves the Earth on his first space mission in the year 2200 and travels, according to his clock, for 10 years at a speed of 0.75c. Unfortunately, at this point in his journey, the structure of his ship undergoes mechanical breakdown and the ship explodes.
