    The force applied to the surface is 9 kilo Newton.

    Explanation:

    While jumping on the surface the player applies the force that is equal to its weight on the surface.

    The mass of the player is given as 90 kg.

    Force applied by the player = weight of the player

    Force applied by the player = m * g

    Where m is the mass of the player and g is acceleration due to gravity

    Force applied by the player = 90 * 9.8

    Force applied by the player = 882 Newton

    Expressing your answer to one significant figure, we get

    Force applied by the player = 0. 9 kilo Newton

    The force applied to the surface is 0.9 kilo Newton.
