A hockey ball of mass 0.2kg is hit so that its initial speed is 8 m/s. The ball travels in a horizontal straight line with acceleration given by a= - 0.5- kt where t is the time in seconds measured from when the ball was hit. After 2s the ball has traveled 41/3 m. It is then intercepted by a players from the other team. This player hits the ball so that its direction of travel is reversed and its speed is now 5 m/s. Show that when the ball is hit by the second player it's momentum changes in magnitude by 2 Ns
