B) The final momentum is in the direction opposite of but the final kinetic energy is zero.
C) The final momentum is in the direction of and the final kinetic energy is positive.
D) The final momentum is zero and the final kinetic energy is zero.
E) The final momentum is zero but the final kinetic energy is positive.
Question 2
A 2.50-kg stone is dropped from rest at a height of 3.75 m. What impulse does gravity impart to this stone from the instant it is dropped until it hits the ground, assuming negligible air resistance?
