A person jumps from the roof of a house 2.8 m high. When he strikes the ground below, he bends his knees so that his torso decelerates over an approximate distance of 0.70 m. If the mass of his torso (excluding legs) is 42 kg, find a) his velocity just before his feet strike the ground, and b) the average force exerted on his torso by his legs during deceleration.

the chart show the masses and velocities of two colliding objects that stick together after a collision.

according to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the object after the collision is  

answer

1,500

kg • m/s.

i think the answer is a and b

i wish you luck

blue light is scattered in different directions by the tiny molecules of air. blue is scattered more than other colours because it has a shorter distance to travel which results in smaller waves. this is why we see a blue sky most of the time.

no. bullets are macro objects. wave nature is for light waves, extremely tiny particles. if a light particle was the size of your finger, the bullet would be the size of the universe. so basically, that huge difference in size makes the wave nature of matter insignificant.
