A 64.0-kg person, standing on a diving board, dives straight down into the water. Just before striking the water, her speed is 5.85 m/s. At a time of 1.80 s after entering the water, her speed is reduced to 2.24 m/s. What is the magnitude of the average net force that acts on her when she is in the water?
