A ball moving with a momentum of 50 kg m/s strikes against te wall at an angle of 30 degree and is reflected at the same momentum and same angle . Find the impulse

Open in App

Solution

If we assume it reflects back with same angle then,
Impulse = Change in momentum
= p - (-p)
= 2p
= 2mvCos30
= 2 × 50 × √3 / 2
= 50√3 kgm/s
