A ball of mass 150 g, moving with an acceleration 20 m/s²,

Home » Mechanics » Laws of Motion » Question

A ball of mass 150 g, moving with an acceleration 20 m/s², is hit by a force, which acts on it for 0.1 sec. The impulsive force is

1. 0.5 N
2. 0.1 N
3. 0.3 N
4. 1.2 N

Correct Option: C

Mass = 150 gm

=	150	kg
	1000

Force = Mass × acceleration

=	150	× 20N = 3N
	1000

= Impulsive force = F Δt = 3 × 0.1 = 0.3N
