Answer:
Impulse, J = 9.50 kg-m/s
Explanation:
Mass of the volleyball, m = 0.35 kg
Incoming velocity, u = +3.27 m/s
Outgoing velocity, v = -23.9 m/s
We need to find the magnitude of the impulse that the player applies to the ball. It is equal to the change in momentum. It is given by :
[tex]J=m(v-u)[/tex]
[tex]J=0.35\ kg(-23.9\ m/s-3.27\ m/s)[/tex]
J = -9.50 kg-m/s
So, the impulse that the player applies to the ball is 9.5 m/s but in opposite direction.
