A professional golfer is examining a video of a practice swing. The high‑speed footage shows that his club is in contact with the ball (which was initially at rest on the tee) for only Δ t = 0.771 ms, and the radar gun clocks the speed of the ball as v b = 146 mph after it comes off the club. The golf ball has a mass of m b = 45.9 g. What is the magnitude of the impulse imparted to the ball by the club?

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length (in m) of a column of water 1.45 km high for a temperature increase of 1.12°c. assume the column is not free to expand sideways. as a model of the ocean, that is a reasonable approximation, as only parts of the ocean very close to
