A hockey goalie is standing on ice. Another player fires a puck (m = 0.10 kg) at the goalie with a velocity of +62 m/s
(a) If the goalie catches the puck with his glove in a time of 2.0 10-3 s, what is the average force (magnitude and direction) exerted on the goalie by the puck?=___N
(b) Instead of catching the puck, the goalie slaps it with his stick and returns the puck straight back to the player with a velocity of −62 m/s. The puck and stick are in contact for a time of 2.0 10-3 s. Now what is the average force exerted on the goalie by the puck? =_____ N

a
F = m*V/t = 0.10*62*10^3/2 = 3.1*10^3 N
b)
F'= m*ΔV/t = 0.10*(62-(-62))*10^3/2 = 6.2*10^3 N
