Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Average force = 3.5 kN

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of Jennifer (m) = 50 kg

Initial velocity = 35 m/s

Time taken to stop body = 0.5 s

Find:

Average force

Computation:

v = u + at

0 = 35 + a(0.5)

Acceleration (a) =  - 70 m/s² = 70 m/s²

Average force = ma

Average force = (50(70)

Average force = 3500 N

Average force = 3.5 kN
