In order to increase the final momentum of a golf ball, we could a) follow through when hitting the ball b) increase the force acting on it c) increase the time of contact with the ball d) swing as hard as possible f) All of the above
Added by Kevin S.
Step 1
This is because force is the rate of change of momentum, so increasing the force will result in a greater change in momentum. Show more…

Force of a Golf Swing. $A 0.0450-\mathrm{kg}$ golf ball initially at rest is given a speed of 25.0 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ when a club strikes. If the club and ball are in contact for $2.00 \mathrm{ms},$ what average force acts on the ball? Is the effect of the ball's weight during the time of contact significant? Why or why not?
