When hitting the golf ball the golfer swings the golf club to keep it in contact with the golf ball for as long as possible. The force acting on the golf ball is constant during this time. Explain the effect that the time of contact between the golf club and the golf ball has on the distance the golf ball travels

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply the concept of impulse which is given as follows .

Impulse = force x time

Impulse = change in momentum

If u be the initial velocity of golf ball and v be the final velocity , m be the mass

change in momentum

= mu - ( - mv )

= mu+ mv

If F be the force applied and t be the duration of touch with the ball

Impulse = F x t

F x t = mu + mv

mv = Ft - mu

For given mu , greater the value of t , greater will be the value of v

so v is increased when t is increased .

Increased value of v will help in achieving greater distance attained by

golf ball
