When jumping straight down, you can be seriously injured if you land stiff-legged. One way to avoid injury is to bend your knees upon landing to reduce the force of the impact. A 84.0-kg man just before contact with the ground has a speed of 6.82 m/s. (a) In a stiff-legged landing he comes to a halt in 4.56 ms. Find the magnitude of the average net force that acts on him during this time. (b) When he bends his knees, he comes to a halt in 0.254 s. Find the magnitude of the average net force now. (c) During the landing, the force of the ground on the man points upward, while the force due to gravity points downward. The average net force acting on the man includes both of these forces. Taking into account the directions of the forces, find the magnitude of the force applied by the ground on the man in part (b).

22. the top of a cliff is located a distance h above the ground. at a distance h/2 there is a branch that juts out from the side of the cliff, and on this branch a bird's nest is located. two children throw stones at the nest with the same initial speed, one stone straight downward from the top of the cliff and the other stone straight upward from the ground. in the absence of air resistance, which stone hits the nest in the least amount of time?

The illuminance of a surface varies inversely with the square of its distance from the light source. if the illuminance of a surface is 120 lumens per square meter when its distance from a certain light source is 6 meters, by how many meters should the distance of the surface from the source be increased to reduce its illuminance to 30 lumens per square meter?
