Solution

The correct option is A -4 kg.m/s
Initially the velocity of the ball in horizontal direction is $1 m / s$ .
Finally the velocity of ball remains in vertical direction. Thus velocity in initial direction(horizontal)= $0 m / s$
Thus the change in momentum= $_{2} -_{1} = m (_{2} -_{1}) = 4 \times (0 - 1) k g m / s = - 4 k g m / s$
