    6,600N

    Explanation:

    According to second law of motion, Force = mass * acceleration

    If acceleration = change in velocity/time = 15/0.10

    Acceleration = 150m/s²

    Given mass = 44kg

    Force = 44 * 150

    Force = 6,600N

    Magnitude of the average force exerted on the passenger during this time is 6,600N
