Blocks A and B are on a frictionless horizontal surface. Block A is to the left of block B. Block A has a mass of 2.5 kg and B has a mass of 1.3 kg. Block A is struck from the left with a hammer. The average force of this impact is 65 N and lasts for 0.12 seconds. Block A slides to the right, strikes and sticks to block B. The two blocks then slide to the right together. They then reach a rough surface which has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.31.

Using impulse and momentum, determine the speed of block A after the hammer strikes it.
