What was the magnitude of the force propelling him

The Zacchini family was renowned for their humancannonball act in which a family member was shot from a cannon using either elastic bands or compressed air. In one version of the act, Emanuel Zacchini was shot over three Ferris wheels to land in a net at the same height as the open end of the cannon and at a range of 68 m. He was propelled inside the barrel for 5.7 m and launched at an angle of 55°. If his mass was 81 kg and he underwent constant acceleration inside the barrel, what was the magnitude of the force propelling him? (Hint: Treat the launch as though it were along a ramp at 55°. Neglect air drag.)
