2. A particle of mass 2 kg is moving with velocity \(3 \mathbf { i } \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) when it receives an impulse \(( \lambda \mathbf { i } - 2 \lambda \mathbf { j } )\) Ns, where \(\lambda\) is a constant. Immediately after the impulse is received, the speed of the particle is \(6 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\).
Find the possible values of \(\lambda\).
