Multiply the mass by the gravity.
1200kg x -9.8= -11760 N
<em>v</em>² - <em>u</em>² = 2 <em>a</em> ∆<em>x</em>
where <em>u</em> = initial velocity (27 m/s), <em>v</em> = final velocity (0), <em>a</em> = acceleration (-8 m/s², taken to be negative because we take direction of movement to be positive), and ∆<em>x</em> = stopping distance.
So
0² - (27 m/s)² = 2 (-8 m/s²) ∆<em>x</em>
∆<em>x</em> = (27 m/s)² / (16 m/s²)
∆<em>x</em> ≈ 45.6 m
Answer:
(a) The horizontal ground reaction force 
(b) The vertical ground reaction force 
(c) The resultant ground reaction force 
Explanation:
Given
John mass , m = 65 kg
Horizontal acceleration , 
Vertical acceleration , 
(a) Using Newton's 2nd law in horizontal direction

=>
Thus the horizontal ground reaction force 
(b) Using Newton's 2nd law in vertical direction

=>
=>
Thus the vertical ground reaction force 
(c) Resultant ground reaction force is

=>
=>
Thus the resultant ground reaction force
