A soccer ball has an initial speed of 5 m/s, that goes to the right and then hits a wall. After hitting that wall, the soccer ball now goes to the left direction with a speed of 2 m/s. What is the magnitude of the force exerted by the wall to the soccer ball if the time of contact between the two is 0.02 s? Hint: Be careful with the direction of the velocities. (Provide full solution of the problem).
