A ball strikes a wall. It exerts a force of 10 N to the left against the wall and bounces off. What force does the wall exert on the ball? 10 N to the left 10 N to the right more than 10 N to the left more than 10 N to the right

Given :

A ball strikes a wall. It exerts a force of 10 N to the left against the wall and bounces off.

To Find :

What force does the wall exert on the ball.

Solution :

We know, by third law of motion "every motion has equal and opposite reaction".

Ball exert a force of 10 N to the left against the wall.

So, by newton's third law of motion :

Wall will exert same force of 10 N in opposite direction i.e in right direction.

Therefore, force does the wall exert on the ball is 10 N to the right.

Hence, this is the required solution.
