Problem

Two identical rubber balls rest on a smooth horizontal surface. Ball P is hit by a constant horizontal force of

5\,\text{N}

for

0.40\,\text{s}

, while ball Q is hit by a constant horizontal force of

10\,\text{N}

for

0.20\,\text{s}

. Which statement correctly compares the magnitudes of their momentum changes? a) Ball Q undergoes the larger change in momentum b) Both balls undergo equal changes in momentum c) Ball P undergoes the larger change in momentum d) The information provided is insufficient to compare the momentum changes
