A man throws a ball of mass \(0.4\ kg\) vertically upwards with a velocity of \(10\ m/s\). What will be its initial momentum? What would be its momentum at the highest point of its reach?
A man throws a ball of mass \(0.4\ kg\) vertically upwards with a velocity of \(10\ m/s\). What will be its initial momentum? What would be its momentum at the highest point of its reach?
Answer
Given that, Mass of ball \(m=0.4\ kg\). Initial velcotiy of ball \(u =10\ m/s\). Initial momentum of the ball will be given as, \(P_i=mu=0.4\times 10=4\ kg\ m/s\). At the highest point, velocity of ball is zero. So momentum of the ball \(P_f=0.4\times 0=0\).
What is momentum? Write its \(SI\) unit. Interpret force in terms of momentum. Represent the following graphically : momentum versus velocity when mass is fixed.
