Starting from rest, a 58.0 kg woman jumps down to the floor from a height of 0.560 m, and immediately jumps back up into the air. While she is in contact with the ground during the time interval 0 < t < 0.800 s, the force she exerts on the floor can be modeled using the function F = 9,200 t − 11,500 t2 where F is in newtons and t is in seconds. (a) What impulse (in N⋅s) did the woman receive from the floor? (Enter the magnitude. Round your answer to at least three significant figures.) N⋅s (b) With what speed (in m/s ) did she reach the floor? (Round your answer to at least three significant figures.) m/s (c) With what speed (in m/s ) did she leave it? (Round your answer to at least three significant figures. ) m/s (d) To what height (in m) did she jump upon leaving the floor? m
