NEET Physics Impulse & Momentum MCQ Question
Two billiard balls each of mass 0.05 kg moving in opposite directions with speed 6 m/s collide and rebound with the same speed. What is the impulse imparted to each ball due to the other?
0.6 N s
0.3 N s
2 N s
0 N s
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
From the NCERT context, impulse is the change in momentum. Since both balls rebound with the same speed in opposite directions, the change in momentum for each ball is 2 * 0.05 kg * 6 m/s = 0.6 N s.
