Jenna was serving a 0.285 kg volleyball to win the set against UNB.  Scott was geeking it up and brought a high-speed camera into the gym and used it to determine that Jenna’s hand was in contact with the ball for 0.033 seconds during the serve.  Scott also borrowed a radar gun from a local RCMP and using this gun, he was able to determine that the velocity of the volleyball when it left her hand was 24.4 m/s.   What force in Newtons did Jenna’s hand exert on the volleyball during the serve (assume the ball’s speed was zero when her hand first struck the ball)?
