Answer:

The ball and the wall experience the same force.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a ball hits a wall, Newton's third law of motion is applied. According to this law, an object applies equal and opposite force on another object when collides.

Here, first object is ball and other one is wall. When the ball hit a wall, the ball exert a force on the wall. Also wall exerts an equal and opposite force on the ball. It would mean that the ball and the wall experience the same force.

Hence, the correct option is (c).
