$A$ ball of mass $m$ falls vertically to the ground from a height $h_1$ and rebounds to a height $h_2$. The change in momentum of the ball on striking the ground is

  • A
    $mg(h_1 - h_2)$
  • B
    $m(\sqrt{2gh_1} + \sqrt{2gh_2})$
  • C
    $m\sqrt{2g(h_1 + h_2)}$
  • D
    $m\sqrt{2g}(h_1 + h_2)$
