Question:
A basketball with a mass of 0.62 kg falls vertically to the floor where it hits with a speed of −6 m/s. (We take the positive direction to be upward here.) The ball rebounds, leaving the floor with a speed of 4.5 m/s.
(a) What impulse acts on the ball during its collision with the floor?
(b) If the ball is in contact with the floor for 0.04 s, what is the average force of the ball on the floor?

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
