  1. A particle \(P\) of mass 0.3 kg is moving with velocity \(5 \mathbf { i } \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\)
The particle receives an impulse I Ns.
Immediately after receiving the impulse, the velocity of \(P\) is \(( 7 \mathbf { i } + 7 \mathbf { j } ) \mathrm { ms } ^ { - 1 }\)
  1. Find the magnitude of \(\mathbf { I }\)
  2. Find the angle between the direction of \(\mathbf { I }\) and the direction of motion of \(P\) immediately before receiving the impulse.
