Free fall 5
Jeremy accidentally dropped his toy stuffed animal from the balcony of his apartment on the fourth floor. The toy hit the ground at a velocity of 16.0 meters/second. At impact, it took 2.0 seconds for the toy's velocity to reach 0 meters/second. If the toy has a mass of 0.25 kilograms, what's the force of the impact?
