. A girl skipping stones across a lake accidentally hits a toy boat that is initially at rest in the water. The 72-gram stone strikes the boat at a velocity of 13 m/s, 150 below due east, and ricochets off at a velocity of 11 m/s, 120 above due east. After being struck, the boat's velocity is 2.1 m/s, due east. Assume the water offers no resistance to the boat's motion in the x-direction. (b) Determine the direction of the average force felt by the stone during the collision. Ignore the force due to gravity
