5.0\,\text{kg}

block slides eastward at

4.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-1}

. A constant

10\,\text{N}

force directed west acts on the block for

3.0\,\text{s}

. (i) Calculate the impulse imparted to the block, stating its direction. (ii) Find the velocity of the block at the end of the

3.0\,\text{s}

interval.
