There are many well-documented cases of people surviving falls from heights greater than 20.0 m. In one such case, a 55.0 kg woman survived a fall from a 10th floor balcony, 29.0 m above the ground, onto the garden below, where the soil had been turned in preparation for planting. Because of the "give" in the soil, which the woman compressed a distance of 15.0 cm upon impact, she survived the fall and was only briefly hospitalized.
1. What was the magnitude of her deceleration during the impact in terms of g? Assuming a constant acceleration, what was the time interval (in s) during which the soil brought her to a stop?
2. What was the magnitude of the impulse (in N · s) felt by the woman during impact?
3. What was the magnitude of the average force (in N) felt by the woman during impact?
