Frictional Force is the answer..
Hope it helps
Answer:
Explanation:
The vehicle is experiencing a large force created by the concrete wall.
Equation
vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a * d
Givens
vf = 0 The car eventually does stop.
vi = 72 km/hr * [ 1000 m/ km] * [1 hour / 3600 seconds]
vi = 20 meters / second
a = ?
m = 850 kg
Solution
vf^2 = vi^2 + 2a*d
0 = 20 m/s + 2* 2 *a
-20 m/s = 4a
-20/4 = a
a = - 5 m/s^2 The minus sign tells you the vehicle is slowing down. It sure should be.
Force = m * a
F = - 850 * (-5)
F = - 4250 N
The car provides a 4250 N force on it going east to west and a 4250 N force going from west to east provided by the concrete wall.
To find the total number of miles traveled by a person, we add the distance that he has traveled: 3.0 + 5.00 + 4.000.
Now, to find the accurate number of significant figures when adding measurements, the basic rule for addition is to use the least number of decimal places when reporting the result.
Now, since 3.0 has the least number of decimal places, we report the sum with 1 decimal place and have 12.0 miles as the total distance traveled by the person to reach his destination.
Answer: 12.0 miles
