NEET Physics Impulse & Momentum MCQ Question
A cricket ball of mass 0.2 kg is struck by a bat and reverses its direction, maintaining the same speed of 15 m/s. What is the impulse imparted to the ball?
0 N s
6.0 N s
0.0 N s
5 N s
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Impulse is the change in momentum, calculated as 0.2 × 15 - (0.2 × -15) = 6.0 N s. The direction change doubles the momentum change.
