Problem

A 0.10 kg0.10\,\text{kg} steel ball is initially at rest. A machine exerts a horizontal force that increases uniformly from 00 to 100 N100\,\text N in 0.020 s0.020\,\text s and then decreases uniformly back to 00 in the next 0.020 s0.020\,\text s. Neglecting friction, what is the speed of the ball immediately after the force returns to zero? (a) 40 m/s40\,\text{m/s} (b) 20 m/s20\,\text{m/s} (c) 10 m/s10\,\text{m/s} (d) 30 m/s30\,\text{m/s}
