Answer:
External force on him will be 112 N
Explanation:
We have given the mass of the sprinter m =70 kg
Acceleration of the sprinter [tex]a=1.6m/sec^2[/tex]
We have to find the net external force
According to second law of motion force = mass ×acceleration
Force is dependent on the mass and acceleration
So [tex]F=70\times 1.6=112 N[/tex]
So external force will be 112 N
