A footballer kicks a ball vertically upwards. Initially, the ball is stationary. His boot is in contact with the ball for 0.050s. The average resultant force on the ball during this time is 180N. The ball leaves his foot at 20m/s. Calculate the impulse

Impulse is Force x TimeThe force has been given as 180N. The time that the foot was in contact with the ball was 0.05sImpulse=FxtImpulse=180x0.05Impulse= 9Ns
