    A ball is thrown up at an angle with the horizontal. Then the total change of momentum by the instant it returns to ground is

    A)  acceleration due to gravity x total time of flight

    B)  weight of the ball x half the time of flight

    C)  weight of the ball x total time of flight

    D)  weight of the ball x horizontal range

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Change in momentum of the ball                 \[=mv\sin \theta -(-mv\sin \theta )=2mv\sin \theta \]                 \[=mg\times \frac{2v\sin \theta }{g}\] = weight of the ball \[\times \] total time of flight
