A 0.045-kg golf ball is rolling toward the hole with an approximately constant velocity ⟨0.5, 0, 0⟩ m/s. At t = 0.90 s, it hits the edge of the hole. It then travels around the hole ("rimming out") and continues rolling at a nearly constant momentum. It leaves the hole at t = 1.2 s with a speed 0.34 m/s in the direction ⟨0.45, 0.90, 0⟩. A picture of the ball before and after the interaction is shown below. What is the average net force on the golf ball during the time interval that the ball interacts with the hole?
