Answer: The ball (option A)
Explanation: change in momentum is defined by the formulae m(v - u) where m = mass of object, v = final velocity and u = initial velocity.
For the ball, it hits the ground and bounces back with the same speed, that's final velocity equals initials (v = - u)
Change in momentum = m( -u- u) = m(-2u) = m(-2u) = -2mu
For the clay, it final velocity is zero since it sticks to the floor, hence (v =0)
m(v - u) = m(0 - u) = - mu.
-2mu (change in momentum from the ball) is greater than - mu ( change in momentum of clay)
Answer:
of the velocity of a full size plane in the air
