Physics question? Need help!

A frieMD climbs and apple tree and drops a 0.22 kg apple from rest to you, standing 3.5 m below. When you cat the apple, you bring it to rest in 0.28 s.

a) what was the speed of the apple just before you caught it? (I figured this out. The answer is 8.3 m/s)

b) What average force did you exert on the apple to bring it to rest? (Be sure to include both the weight of the apple and the force needed to bring it to rest.)
