Question

a batsman hits back a ball straight in the direction of the bowler without changing its initial speed of 10ms-1 if the mass of the ball is 0.10kg determine the impulse imparted to the ball​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Let the direction of ball after getting hit be +ve

initial momentum = 0.1*10 = -1

final momentum = 1 because direction changes

J (impulse ) = P(final) - p(initial)

J = 1-(-1)= 2 joules
