Q. A car of mass 1000 kg is moving with a velocity of 20 m/s. If the brakes are applied and the car comes to a stop in 5 seconds, what is the average force applied by the brakes?
A.
2000 N
B.
4000 N
C.
5000 N
D.
6000 N
Show solution
Solution
The change in momentum is 1000 kg * 20 m/s = 20000 kg·m/s. The average force is F = Δp/Δt = 20000 kg·m/s / 5 s = 4000 N.
Correct Answer: B — 4000 N

Q. A car of mass 1000 kg is moving with a velocity of 20 m/s. What is the net force required to bring it to rest in 5 seconds?
A.
4000 N
B.
2000 N
C.
