Answer :

Force exerted by the astronaut was 625 newtons

what is force?

A force in physics is an effect that has the power to alter an object's motion. A force can cause an object with mass to alter its velocity, or accelerate (for example, moving from a condition of rest). Intuitively, a push or a pull can also be used to describe force. Being a vector quantity, a force has both magnitude and direction.

formula to find the force was

Force= mass x acceleartion.

max acceleration (slope) occurs from 1min to 2 min, I see the slope as

the acceleration was found to be 12.5

Force=50 x 12.5 Newtons

=625 newtons.
