* Three friends play beach volleyball. The 280-g ball is flying east at speed 8.0 m/s with respect to the ground when one of the players bumps the ball north. The force exerted by the wrist on the ball has an average magnitude of 84 N and lasts for 0.010 s. Determine the ball’s velocity (magnitude and direction) following the bump. Does your answer make sense?
