A snowshoer falls off a ridge into a snow bank
3.3 m below and penetrates 0.80 m into the snow
before stopping.
If positive y direction is vertically upward, what is the y component of her average acceleration in the snow bank?

acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (20-120)= -100 m/s.

1.5 min = 90 sec

acceleration = -100/90 = -1.11 m/s^2.

we don't care about the 150kg or the 2,500 meters. they don't make any difference.
