A 1000kg car is rolling slowly across a level surface at 1 m/s heading twoards a group o fsmall innocent children. The doors are locked so you cna't get inside to use the breaks. Instead you run in fornt fo the scar and push on the hood at an anlge of 30 degrees below horizontal. How hard must you push the car in a distance fo 2m?

The force required to push to stop the car is 288.67 N

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the car, m = 1000 kg

Initial speed of the car, u = 1 m/s

The car and push on the hood at an angle of 30° below horizontal,

Distance, d = 2 m

Let F is the force must you push to stop the car.

According work energy theorem theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy as :

The force required to push to stop the car is 288.67 N

this would be about 43%
