Momentum and Impulse questions... A rubber ball with a mass of 0.165 kg is dropped from rest. From what height was the ball dropped, if the magnitude of the ball's momentum is 0.790 kg · m/s just before it lands on the ground

Question

anonymous · Answer

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity, i.e.$$p = mv$$Since you know the mass and momentum of the ball as it hits the ground, you can determine the ball's velocity. Then, go to the kinematics equations to determine from what height the ball must drop to attain that velocity.

how do I do that?...we just started this unit and I've been trying to figure this out for a while now. everything I've tried has been wrong

anonymous · Answer

Using the equation above, can you determine the velocity?

do I use mv^2 equation?
