A 1980-kg car is traveling with a speed of 15.5 m/s. What is the magnitude of the horizontal net force that is required to bring the car to a halt in a distance of 39.2 m

Respuesta :

Answer: 6067.5 N

Explanation:

Work = Change in Energy. To start, all of the energy is kinetic energy, so find the total KE using: KE = 1/2(m)(v^2). Plug in 1980 kg for m and 15.5 m/s for v and get KE = 237847.5 J.

Now, plug this in for work: Work = Force * Distance; so, divide work by distance to get 6067.5 N.
