An astronaut is playing with a ping pong paddle and ball in zero gravity. The astronaut is 12 m from a flat wall and floating toward it at 4 m/s. A ping pong ball bounces back and forth between his paddle and the wall at 11 m/s. Eventually, the astronaut reaches the wall and traps the ball against it.
Now treat the “bounce” somewhat realistically.
If the bounce lasts 25ms, what is the average acceleration of the ball during this time? Give the magnitude only in m/s^2.
