Obtain the work done by force generated by propulsion unit

Reference no: EM13669232

"Rocket Man" has a propulsion unit strapped to his back. He starts from rest on the ground, fires the unit, and accelerates straight upward. At a height of 14 meter, his speed is 4.9 m/s. His mass, including the propulsion unit, has the approximately constant value of 122 kilogram. Obtain the work done by force generated by the propulsion unit.
