- A.3 kg ball bounces off the ground. Before the bounce it had a velocity of 8 m/s in the x direction and -17 m/s in the y direction. After the bounce it had a velocity of 8 m/s in the x direction and 9 m/s in the y direction. If the collision lasted 0.062 seconds, what is the magnitude of the average net force on the ball while it was colliding with the ground in N?
