The maximum force that the athlete exerts on the bag is equal to 1,500 N and in the opposite direction as the force that the bag exerts on the athlete.
Newton's third law of motion states that action and reaction are equal and opposite.
Fa = -Fb
The force exerted by the athlete on the bag is equal to the force the bag exerted on the athlete but in opposite direction.
Thus, the maximum force that the athlete exerts on the bag is equal to 1,500 newtons and in the opposite direction as the force that the bag exerts on the athlete.
