Nathaniel is South's third baseman. In the game against cross-town rival North, a line drive was heading towards Nathaniel at 33.8 m/s. He quickly raised his glove and caught the 0.159-kg ball with stiffly held arms, bringing it to rest after 0.0465 seconds of contact. What average force did Nathaniel apply to the ball?

In a study conducted by a University of Illinois researcher, the football team at Unity High School in Tolono, IL was equipped for an entire season with helmets containing accelerometers. Information about every impact in practice and in games was sent to a computer present on the sidelines. The study found that the average force on a top of the head impact was 1780 N and endured for 7.82 milliseconds. Using a head mass of 5.71 kg and presuming the head to be a free body, determine the velocity change experienced in such an impact. (Magnitude only; no + or - signs.)
