The average speed of a nitrogen molecule in air is about 686 m/s, and its mass is 4.85 x10-26 kg. If it takes 3.78 x 10-13 s for a nitrogen molecule to hit a wall and rebound with the same speed but moving in the opposite direction, what is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the molecule during this time interval?
