Question on: JAMB Physics - 2018

A ball of mass 5.0kg hits a smooth vertical wall normally with a speed of 2ms\(^{-1}\). Determine the magnitude of the resulting impulse

A
20.0kgms\(^{-1}\)
B
10.0kgms\(^{-1}\)
C
5.0kgms\(^{-1}\)
D
2.5kgms\(^{-1}\)
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: B

Impulse = Change in momentum

  m (v - u)

  5 (2.0)

  = 5 x 2 = 10.0kgm\(^{-1}\)

  = 10.0kgms\(^{-1}\)
