Let's use Newton's 2nd law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Force = (68 kg) x (1.2 m/s²) = 81.6 newtons .

Answer:
Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²
Explanation:
Given:
Initial velocity (u) = 6 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 4.4 m/s
Time taken (t) = 0.04sec
Find:
Acceleration (a) = ?
Computation:
We know that,
⇒ v = u + at
⇒ a = (v - u) / t
⇒ Acceleration (a) = (4.4 - 6) / 0.04
⇒ Acceleration (a) = (-1.6) / 0.04
Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²
