The average speed of a nitrogen molecule in air is about 669 m/s, and its mass is 4.43×10^-26 kg. If it takes 2.66×10^-13 s for a nitrogen molecule to hit a wall and rebound by the same speed but moving in the opposite direction, what is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the molecule through this time interval?
