Question

13. A hockey ball of mass 200 g travelling at 10 ms–1 is struck by a hockey stick so as to return it along its original path with a velocity at 5 ms–1. Calculate the magnitude of change of momentum occurred in the motion of the hockey ball by the force applied by the hockey stick.

Solution

Given, mass of the ball (m) = 200g

Initial velocity of the ball (u) = 10 m/s

Final velocity of the ball (v) = – 5m/s

Initial momentum of the ball = mu = 200g × 10 ms-1 = 2000 g.m.s-1

Final momentum of the ball = mv = 200g × –5 ms-1 = –1000 g.m.s-1

Therefore, the change in momentum (mv – mu) = –1000 g.m.s-1 – 2000 g.m.s-1 = –3000 g.m.s-1

This implies that the momentum of the ball reduces by 1000 g.m.s-1 after being struck by the hockey stick.

Kashmir is considered one of India's most precious gems and after 20 years of unrest, travellers are now returning to this wondrous land. Considered one of the most beautiful places on earth, Kashmir has much to offer, from the soaring, snowy peaks of the majestic Himalayas to the silver, lotus laden lakes, rolling meadows and blue pine forests.
