    How Do You Calculate the Average Force Exerted on a Stuntman by Mattresses?

    Well, start by finding his velocity when he hits the mattresses: V^2 = 0^2 + 2(9.8)(26) V^2 = 509.6 V ~ 22.57 Now calculate his rate of decceleration from 22.57 m/s to 0 m/s in .95 m: 0^2 = 22.57^2 + 2(a)(.95) -509.6 = 1.9a a ~ -268.21 m/s/s Now apply Newton's first law given his...
