A 100 kg man jumps into a swimming pool from a height of 5.0 meters. It takes 0.40 seconds for the water to reduce his velocity to zero. what average force did the water exert on the man? Please show all work
If a 100 kg man jumps into a swimming pool from a height of 5.0 meters, and it takes 0.40 seconds for the water to reduce his velocity to zero, then the average force did the water exert on the man is -4.5 m/s. The formula is F = m (vf - vi)/t.
