Figure 1 shows a hockey stick about to hit a field hockey ball.

Diagram showing a field hockey ball travelling towards a hockey stick at a velocity of 14 m/s. The stick is positioned to strike the ball so that it travels in the opposite direction at a velocity of 22 m/s.

The ball is travelling towards the stick at a velocity of 14 m/s.

The ball is hit back in the opposite direction at a velocity of 22 m/s.

The ball has a mass of 0.16 kg.

The ball remains in contact with the hockey stick for a time of 8.0 ms.

Calculate the average force exerted on the ball by the hockey stick.

Use the equation:

F=mv−mut F = \frac{mv - mu}{t} F=tmv−mu​
