A ball of mass 4.5 kg moving with speed of 2.2 m/s in the +x-direction hits a wall and bounces back with the same speed in the x

direction. what is the change of the momentum of the ball?

Answer:

The change of the momentum of the ball is -19.8\, \frac{mkg}{s}

Explanation:

We should find \varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=\overrightarrow{p_{f}}-\overrightarrow{p_{i}} (1)with \overrightarrow{p_{i}} the initial momentum and \overrightarrow{p_{f}} the final momentum. Linear momentum is defined as \overrightarrow{p}=m\overrightarrow{v}, using that on (1):

\varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=m \overrightarrow{v_{f}}-m \overrightarrow{v_{i}} (2)

It's important to note that momentum and velocity are vectors and direction matters, so if +x direction is the direction towards the wall and the -x direction away the wall \overrightarrow{v_{i}}=+2.2\, \frac{m}{s} and \overrightarrow{v_{f}}=-2.2\, \frac{m}{s} so (2) becomes:

\varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=m(-2.2- (+2.2))=-(4.5)(4.4)

\varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=-19.8\, \frac{mkg}{s}
