    Answer:

    4.7 N

    Explanation:

    130 g = 0.13 kg

    The momentum of the snowball when it’s thrown at the wall is

    p = mv = 0.13*6.5 = 0.845 kgm/s

    Which is also the impulse. From here we can calculate the magnitude of the average force F knowing the duration of the collision is 0.18 s

    p = F\Delta t

    F*0.18 = 0.845

    F = 0.845 / 0.18 = 4.7 N
