    9.6 Ns

    Explanation:

    Note: From newton's second law of motion,

    Impulse = change in momentum

    I = m (v-u) ... Equation 1

    Where I = impulse, m = mass of the ball, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity.

    Given: m = 2.4 kg, v = 2.5 m/s, u = - 1.5 m/s (rebounds)

    Substitute into equation 1

    I = 2.4[2.5 - (-1.5) ]

    I = 2.4 (2.5+1.5)

    I = 2.4 (4)

    I = 9.6 Ns
