Answer

$42\ kg. m/s$

Work Step by Step

The mass of the ball $m=1.2\ kg$ Speed at which hits the ground $v_i = -25\ m/s$ Rebound speed $v_f = 10\ m/s$ The impulse of the ball is equal to the change in momentum: $J=\Delta P$ $J = mv_f - mv_i$ $J = m(v_f-v_i)$ $J=1.2\ kg (10\ m/s - (-25\ m/s))$ $J=42\ kg. m/s$
