Q. A ball of mass 0.15 kg is dropped from a height 10 m, strikes the ground and rebounds to the same height. The magnitude of impulse imparted to the ball is (g = 10 $m/s^2$) nearly:

A) 4.2 kg m/s
B) 2.1 kg m/s
C) 1.4 kg m/s
D) 0 kg m/s
Explanation

[Solution] $v = \sqrt{2gh} = \sqrt{200}$ m/s; impulse = 2mv = $2 \times 0.15 \times 14.14 \approx 4.2$ kg m/s. Answer (1).
