A massive (1kg) alien apple on some strange earth-like exoplanetfalls freely according to the equation of motion,
y(t) = 5 — 5t — 5t2
where y is the apple’s elevation above the ground in meters andt is in seconds. Find the change in the apple’s momentum from t=0until it hits the ground in kg m/s.
Choices:
