If a 500 kg car is moving at 20 m/s, what force would be required to stop that car in 5 seconds?


Rate This Answer

Car The amount of force needed to stop the vehicle will depend on how much work is needed to remove the kinetic energy from the vehicle. Since kinetic energy KE is given by: KE=1/2*m*v^2. Therefore it will take 100,000 joules to stop the car. ChaCha!
