A student of mass $M$ is $1.5 \,m$ tall and has her centre of mass $1 \,m$ above ground when standing straight. She wants to jump up vertically. To do so. she bends her knees so that her centre of mass is lowered by $0.2 \,m$ and then pushes the ground by a constant force F. As a result, she jumps up such that the maximum height of her feet is $0.3 \,m$ above ground. The ratio $F / Mg$ is
