A ball collides elastically with a wall, perpendicular to the wall. Interpret the provided diagram that displays the variation of the force *F* exerted by the wall on the ball with time *t*. What is the change in momentum of the ball?

Force-Time Graph A graph showing Force (F/N) on the y-axis versus Time (t/s) on the x-axis. The graph forms a triangle starting at (0,0), peaking at (2,10), and returning to (4,0). t/s F/N 0 1 2 3 4 5 2 4 6 8 10 12
Hint Hint

Hint

Recall the relationship between impulse, change in momentum, and the force-time graph.
