A car having a total mass of 2250 kg and traveling at 72.0 km/h smashes into a tree. The car is stopped in 0.250 s. The average force acting on the car during the collision is A. 1.80, 105 N.
B. 80.0 N.
C. 1.80 102 N
D. zero. E. 2.20 104

A. 1.8x10⁵

Explanation:

For this question we have

72km/h = speed

Total mass = 2250kg

Stopped at t = 0.2250s

To get average force acting on this car on collision:

72km/3.6 = 20m|s

Impulse = ∆p

This implies:

F∆t = m∆v

F = m∆v/∆t

= 2250x20/0.250

= 180000

= 1.8x10⁵

Therefore option A is correct.
