Problem-3:
A ball of mass 200 gram strikes a wall perpendicular to its surface at a speed of 10 m/s and
rebounds back at the speed of 5 m/s. It is in contact with the wall for 2 milli-sec. Find the
average force exerted by the wall on the ball.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Average force exerted will be calculated as follows:

F=Pf-Pit

F is the average force

Pf and Pi are the final and initial momentum

Say direction towards the wall is positive and away from the wall is negative.

Therefore,

Pi=+mvi=+200×10-3×10=+2 Kgm/s

Pf=-mvf=-200×10-3×5=-1 Kgm/s
