Answer:

Weight of the runner is 60 kilograms

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of weight and velocity.

The formula is : p=mv   where m is mass in kg and v is velocity in m/s

Given in the question ;

v= 20 m/s  and p=1200 kg*m/s

Applying the formula as;

p= mv

1200 = m * 20

1200/20 = m

60 kg = m
