A 135 grams baseball, moving along the x-axis with speed 30.0 m/s, strikes a fence at a 45 degree angle and rebounds along the y-axis with unchanged speed.
Give the y and y components of its change in momentum --> ∆Px and ∆Py
are the following correct?
M= 0.135 kg
Vx = 30.0 m/s
θ=45
Vy=30.0 m/s
I calculated ∆Px = M*Vx*cos 45
0.135 * 30.0 * cos 45 = 2.9 kg m/s
∆Py = M*Vy*sin 0
= 0.135*30.0*sin 0 = 0
but I got it wrong..
can anyone help me?
thanks..
