A frictionless disk of mass 0.50 kg is moving in a straight line across an air table at a speed of 2.4 m/s [E] when it bumps into an elastic band stretched between two fixed posts. The elastic band exerts an average opposing force of 1.4 N [W] on the disk for 1.5 s. What is the final velocity of the disk?
