A ball of mass 0.5 kg, initially at rest, acquires a speed of 4 m/s immediately after being kicked by a force of strength 20 N. for how long did this force act on the ball?

Answer»

0.01s
0.02s
0.1s
0.2s

Solution :The impulse DELIVERED to the BALL, `J=Fdeltat`, equals its change in momentum, since the ball STARTED from REST, we have
`Fdeltat=mvimpliesDeltat=(mv)/(F)=((0.5kg)(4m//s))/(20N)=0.1s`.
