The work done on the car is -20 J.
Work done on the car is negative, meaning that the car actually does work on the external system.
<h3>Energy and law of conservation of energy</h3>
- Energy is the ability to do work
- the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy in a system is conserved
From the law of conservation of energy, the initial energy of the car before it moves down the road remains constant or unchanged.
- Initial energy = 100 J
- Initial energy = Final energy - work done on car
- Final Energy = Work done on car + initial energy
80J = Work done on car + 100 J
Work done on car = 80 - 100J
Work done on car = -20 J
Hence, the work done on the car is -20 J
Work done on car is negative.
Since work done on the car is negative, it means that the car actually does work on the external system. Hence, the decrease in the energy of the car.

Complete Question
Suppose you hit a steel nail with a 0.500-kg hammer, initially moving at 15.0 m/s and brought to rest in 2.80 mm. How much is the nail compressed if it is 2.50 mm in diameter and 6.00-cm long.What Average force is excreted on the Nail
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Mass 
Initial Velocity 
Distance 
Diameter 
Length 
Generally the equation for Force is mathematically given by
It's not so much a "contradiction" as an approximation. Newton's law of gravitation is an inverse square law whose range is large. It keeps people on the ground, and it keeps satellites in orbit and that's some thousands of km. The force on someone on the ground - their weight - is probably a lot larger than the centripetal force keeping a satellite in orbit (though I've not actually done a calculation to totally verify this). The distance a falling body - a coin, say - travels is very small, and over such a small distance gravity is assumed/approximated to be constant.
