Answer

The speed of the ball just after impact is $~~2.24~m/s$

Work Step by Step

We can find the impulse on the ball: $J = F~t$ $J = (32~N)(14\times 10^{-3}~s)$ $J = 0.448~N~s$ The impulse on the ball is equal to the change in the ball's momentum. We can find the speed of the ball just after impact: $m~v = p$ $v = \frac{p}{m}$ $v = \frac{0.448~N~s}{0.20~kg}$ $v = 2.24~m/s$ The speed of the ball just after impact is $~~2.24~m/s$
