    The mass of the genesis mission capsule is 210 kilograms, it has a speed of 311 kilometers per hour. When it crashed, it buried itself 81.0 cm deep in the desert floor. The force that it acted on the desert floor is:

    F = ma

    where m is the mass of the capsule

    a is the acceleration of the capsule

    speed = 311 km/h * 1000m / 1 km / 1 hr/3600s

    = 86.39 m/s
