A lead ball strikes a wall and falls down, a tennis ball having the same mass and velocity strikes the wall and bounces back. Check the correct statement Options: A . &nbspThe momentum of the lead ball is greater than that of the tennis ball B . &nbspThe lead ball suffers a greater change in momentum compared with the tennis ball C . &nbspThe tennis ball suffers a greater change in momentum as compared with the lead ball D . &nbspBoth suffer an equal change in momentum

Answer: Option C : C Change in the momentum = Final momentum - initial momentum For lead ball △ → P l e a d = 0 − m → v = − m → v For tennis ball △ → P t e n n i s = − m → v − m → v = − 2 m → v i.e. tennis ball suffers a greater change in momentum.

Question

A lead ball strikes a wall and falls down, a tennis ball having the same mass and velocity strikes the wall and bounces back. Check the correct statement

Options:

A . The momentum of the lead ball is greater than that of the tennis ball

B . The lead ball suffers a greater change in momentum compared with the tennis ball

C . The tennis ball suffers a greater change in momentum as compared with the lead ball

D . Both suffer an equal change in momentum

Answer: Option C
:
C
Change in the momentum
= Final momentum - initial momentum
