A 51 g steel ball is released from rest and falls vertically onto a steel plate. The ball strikes the plate and is in contact with it for 0.5 ms. The ball rebounds elastically, and returns to its original height

The time interval for a round trip is 3.00 s. In this situation, the average force exerted on the ball during contact with the plate is closest to: A) 3,000 N
B) 1,500 N
C) 2,490 N
D) 2,000 N
E) 3,500 N
