Question

During a hockey game, Michael receives the 0.15 kg ice hockey puck that is sliding from left to right across the ice (assume zero friction). The velocity of the puck the instant it makes contact with Michael’s hockey stick is 6 m/s. To pass the puck to another player, Michael applies a 10 N force in the opposite direction of the puck’s initial motion for 0.2 seconds. What is the puck’s velocity after it is passed by Michael to the other player?
