Answer:

7.4375N

Explanation:

According to Newtons second law

F = ma

m is the mass = 140g = 0.14kg

Get the acceleration

v = u + at

8.5 = 0+0.1a

a = 8.5/0.16

a = 53.125m/s²

Get the required force

F = 0.14 * 53.125

F = 7.4375N

Hence the magnitude of the average force on the wall is 7.4375N
