प्रश्न
A woman throws an object of mass 500 g with a speed of 25 ms1.
- What is the impulse imparted to the object?
- If the object hits a wall and rebounds with half the original speed, what is the change in momentum of the object?

उत्तर
Mass of the object (m) = 500 g = 0.5 kg
Speed of the object (v) = 25 m/s
a. Impulse imparted to the object = Change in momentum
= mv – mu
= m(v – u)
= 0.5(25 – 0)
= 12.5 N-s
b. Velocity of the object after rebounds
= `- 25/2` m/s
v' = – 12.5 m/s
∴ Change in momentum = m(v’ – v)
= 0.5 (– 12.5 – 25)
= – 18.75 N-s

A person says that he measured the acceleration of a particle to be non-zero even though no force was acting on the particle.
A person is standing on a weighing machine placed on the floor of an elevator. The elevator starts going up with some acceleration, moves with uniform velocity for a while and finally decelerates to stop. The maximum and the minimum weights recorded are 72 kg and 60 kg, respectively. Assuming that the magnitudes of acceleration and deceleration are the same, find (a) the true weight of the person and (b) the magnitude of the acceleration. Take g = 9.9 m/s2.
