Answer:
DP = 56 [kg*m/s]
Explanation:
We know that momentum is defined by the product of mass by Velocity. In this way by means of the following equation, we can calculate the impulse.
[tex]P=m*v\\[/tex]
where:
P = momentum [kg*m/s]
m = mass [kg]
v = velocity [m/s]
Now replacing:
[tex]P=8*9\\P=72[kg*m/s][/tex]
And after the ball hits the wall:
[tex]P_{2}=8*2\\P_{2}=16[kg*m/s][/tex]
The change in momentum is equal to:
[tex]DP=72-16\\DP = 56 [kg*m/s][/tex]
