    Answer:

    The magnitude of the change in linear momentum of the ball is 6 kg-m/s.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Mass of the ball, m = 1 kg

    Initial sped of the ball, u = 3 m/s

    It strikes a wall and rebound, moving horizontally to the left at the same velocity of 3 m/s, v = -3 m/s

    The magnitude of the change in linear momentum of the ball is given by :

    p=m(v-u)\\\\p=1\ kg\times (-3-3)\\\\p=-6\ kg-m/s

    So, the magnitude of the change in linear momentum of the ball is 6 kg-m/s.
