F = ma
We have mass = 20kg
And we need to solve for acceleration
So acceleration is change in velocity over time, in this case we have one velocity and we can assume the man started from rest so
12.3 / 0.9 = a
a = 13.6667
Now we can plug that into F = ma
F = (20)(13.6667)
F = 273.334
Rounding
F = 273.33
Now he is traveling east so we need a force towards the rest, or in the opposite direction to stop his motion.
If we assume east is the positive direction then we need a force of
-273.33 N to stop the man or 273.33 towards the west.

If the sign of work is negative, that means the force and the motion are in opposite directions.
Let's say you see something roll off of the shelf. You catch it, and you let it down slowly and gently.
Gravity exerted down-force on it and it moved down. Gravity did positive work on it.
YOU exerted UP-force on it and it moved down. YOU did negative work on it.
(Also, the falling object exerted down-force on your hand, and your hand moved down. The falling object did positive work on your hand ! Where did THAT energy come from ? It came from the potential energy that the object had while it was on the shelf. Your hand absorbed that energy on the way down, doing negative work. So the object didn't have any kinetic energy when it reached the floor, and it did NOT splinter the floor or shatter in smithereens. It had barely enough energy left to make a sound when it hit the floor.)
