A crate is dropped from a platform 1.9 m above the ground. Upon impact, it comes to a stop over a distance of about 0.6 m as it compresses a cushioning material. If the mass of the crate is 30 kg, calculate the average force exerted by the cushioning material to decelerate the crate over this distance.
