Answer:

a) 778.95 N

b) No

Explanation:

a) The trampoline will provide the force which is opposite to the force that Jennifer will provide by jumping on it

[tex]F=m(a+g)\\\Rightarrow F=45\times (7.5+9.81)\\\Rightarrow F=778.95\ N[/tex]

Force the trampoline has to apply is 778.95 N

b) Jennifer has to provide or the trampoline has to provide this amount of force in order to reach her desired height and acceleration. Her position in the process of the jump does not matter.
