A tennis player hits a 1.45 kg tennis ball with a racket of mass 2.5 kg. If he hits the ball with a velocity of 7.5 m/s and then stops, what impulse did he imply on the ball? What is the ball's velocity?

    I = mΔv

    I = 2.5 x (7.5 - 0) = 18.75 kg. m/s

    Now, considering that the ball's initial velocity was zero, we have:

    1.45 x 0 + 2.5 x 7.5 = 1.45 x V

    1.45V = 18.75

    V = 12.93 m/s
