A ball of mass m moving with a velocity u rebounds from a wall. The collision is assumed to be elastic and the force of interaction between the ball and wall varies as shown in fig. then the value of F0 is
4 mu/T
Area under the force-time graph is impulse, and impulse is change in momentum.
Area of graph= change in momentum
⇒12TFo=2mu ⇒Fo=4muT
