A person reaches a maximum height of 62 cm when jumping straight up from a crouched position. During the jump itself, the person's body from the knees up rises a distance of around 50 cm. To keep the calculations simple and yet get a reasonable result, assume that the entire body rises this much during the jump.

Part A: With what initial speed does the person leave the ground to reach a height of 62 cm?

Part B: In terms of this jumper's weight W , what force does the ground exert on him or her during the jump?

I figured out the first part, but I can't figure out the second part. :(

Also,

It has to be a number? This is online homework and the answer is in the format:

F=W

To place a communications satellite into a geosynchronous orbit at an altitude of 22,240 mi above the surface of the earth, the satellite first is released from a space shuttle , which is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 185 mi, and then is propelled by an upper-stage booster to its final altitude. as the satellite passes through a, the booster's motor is fired to insert the satellite into an elliptic transfer orbit. the booster is again fired at b to insert the satellite into a geosynchronous orbit. knowing that the second firing increases the speed of the satellite by 4810ft/s, determine (a.) the speed of the satellite as it approaches b on the elliptic transfer orbit, (b.) the increase in speed resulting from the first firing at a.
