Forces & Kinematics
6. Intro to Forces (Dynamics) / Forces & Kinematics / Problem 5
A climber accidentally slips off a cliff and falls freely from a height of 20 m before landing in a snowbank that compresses 1.5 m to cushion the fall. If the climber has a mass of 60 kg, calculate the average decelerating force exerted by the snowbank during the climber's landing.
