A1000-kg car is driving toward the north along a straight horizontal road at a speed of 20.0 m/s. the driver applies the brakes and the car comes to a rest uniformly in a distance of 200 m. what are the magnitude and direction of the net force applied to the car to bring it to rest?

Force will be acting southward and the magnitude of force will be 1000 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of car = 1000 Kg

initial speed of the car (u) = 20 m/s

final speed of the car (v) = 0 m/s

distance to stop the car = 200 m

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

0 = 20² + 2 x a x 200

400 a = -400

a = -1 m/s²

Now, we know

Force = mass x acceleration

F = 1000 x -1

F = -1000 N

- ve sign of force represent force will be acting in the opposite direction of motion.

Force will be acting southward and the magnitude of force will be 1000 N
