12. A hockey ball of mass 200 g travelling at 10 m s−110 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-1} is struck by a hockey stick so as to return it along its original path with a velocity at 5 m s−15 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}. Calculate the magnitude of change of momentum occurred in the motion of the hockey ball by the force applied by the hockey stick.
