A tennis ball is flying east towards the wall with a speed of 41.3 m/s. After bounced against the wall, it's flying west with a speed of 26.3 m/s.  If the mass of the ball is 0.1 kg, and the time of collision with the wall is 0.099 seconds, what is the magnitude of the force on the wall during this process in unit of Newton?
