If a tennis racket strikes a ball (m = 60.0 g; v = 65.0 m/s) for a period of what force does the tennis racket apply to the ball? What is the impulse of this interaction?

Answer:

3.9kg*m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to convert the grams to kilograms

60g=0.06kg

Next you multiply velocity and mass in kilograms

p=mv

p=0.06*65

p=3.9kg*m/s

Impuls = mv = Ft
If you know the time t, you can solve for the force F.
Remember to use the correct units. I suggest to change the given mass to kg.
