Answer:

6.4m/s

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of the man is 1780J.

This mechanical energy is the energy due to the motion of the body and it is a form of kinetic energy.

 Also, mass  = 87kg

   Kinetic energy  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]   m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

           1780  =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 87 x v²

                v²  = 40.9

                v  = 6.4m/s
