Question

A ball of mass 'm' is projected from the ground with a speed 'u' at an angle 'z' with the horizontal.The magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball over a time interval from beginning till it strikes the ground again is.

Solution

We know velocity with which ball strike to the ground is same in magnitude as the velocity with which ball is projected.initial velocity in x direction = ucoszinitial velocity in y direction = u sinzfinal velocity in x direction = u coszfinal velocity in y direction:t is the time taken to reach the highest point.at highest point velocity is zero.0= u sinz -gtt = u sinzgvelocity with which it strike to the ground.v = gt = u sinzgg = u sinz in downward directionchange in velocity in x direction = ucosz- ucosz = 0change in velocity in y direction =u sinz -(-u sinz) = 2usinzchange in momentum in = 2mu sinz
