AP EAMCET · PHYSICS · Center of Mass Momentum and Collision

A ball of mass 3 kg, moving with a speed of 100 m s-1, strikes a wall at an angle 60° (as shown in figure). The ball rebounds at the same speed and remains in contact with the wall for 0.2 s; the force exerted by the ball on the wall is:

  1. A 15003 N
  2. B 1500 N
  3. C 3003 N
  4. D 300 N
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 15003 N

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Change in momentum, ∆p=m∆v ⇒∆p=3100cos30° ⇒∆p=3×2×100×32 ⇒∆p=3003 ∆F=∆p∆t ⇒∆F=30030.2=15003 N
