A 50.0 kg diver steps off a diving board and drops straight down into the water. The net force when in the water is an upward 1450 N. If the diver comes to rest 5.0 m below the water's surface, what is the total distance between the diving board and the diver's stopping point underwater?

force*distance=mg*height
solve for height.
