Question

A golfer hits golf ball, imparting to it an initial speed of 53 m/s directed 27° above the horizontal. Assuming that the
mass of the ball is 41g and the club and the ball are in contact for 1.0 ms. Find
b) the direction of the average force exerted on the ball by the club:

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

An impulse results in a change of momentum

FΔt = mΔv

F = mΔv/Δt

F = 0.041(53 - 0) / 0.001

F = 2,173 N  27° above horizontal
