Impulse & Momentum Conservation

A body of mass M hits normally a rigid wall with velocity V and bounces back with the same velocity. The impulse experienced by the body is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Impulse =Δp=MV−(−MV)= \Delta p = MV - (-MV) (the velocity reverses).
  2. J=2MVJ = 2MV
  3. So the answer is (c) 2MV.
