A new Dutchman Day activity allows people to leap from the top of the Humanities building onto a giant pillow on the ground below. The distance between the top of the Humanities building and the top of the pillow is 9.34 m. The giant pillow compresses 0.781 m as it brings a 60.7-kg person to rest. Find the magnitude of the force (in N) exerted by the giant pillow on the person. You may assume this force is constant during the time that the person is in contact with the pillow.

Electric Charges and Fields

One of the fundamental properties is the electromagnetic property. Charge cannot be destroyed by any process and this contributes formally to the law of charge conservation.
