Answer

The downward impulse on the lizard due to gravity is $~~0.529~kg~m/s$

Work Step by Step

We can find the downward impulse on the lizard due to gravity: $J = F~t$ $J = mg~t$ $J = (0.090~kg)(9.8~m/s^2)(0.600~s)$ $J = 0.529~kg~m/s$ The downward impulse on the lizard due to gravity is $~~0.529~kg~m/s$
