A ball of mass 0.15kg is kicked against a rigid vertical wall with a horizontal velocity of 50ms-1. If it rebounced with a horizontal velocity of 30ms-1, Calculate the impulse of the ball on the ball · ·

  • A. 3.0Ns
  • B. 4.5Ns
  • C. 7.5Ns
  • D. 12.0Ns

Correct Answer: D. 12.0Ns

Explanation

Impulse = m(v-u)

= 0.15(50--30)

= 0.15 X 80

= 12N/s
