A lead ball with a certain velocity is made to strike a wall, it falls down, but rubber ball of same mass and with same velocity strikes the same wall, it rebounds. Select the correct reason from the following:
both the balls undergo an equal change in momentum
the change in momentum suffered by rubber ball is more than the lead ball
the change in momentum suffered by rubber ball is less than the lead ball
none of the above

If P is the force acting on the body, m is the mass of the body and a is the acceleration of the body, then according to Newton's second law of motion,
P + m.a = 0
P - m.a = 0
P x m.a = 0
P/m.a = 0
