  • question_answer
    A car of mass 1000 kg travelling at a speed of 72 km/h hits a tree and comes to rest in 0.2 s. The average force on the car during the impact is

    A)  \[36\times {{10}^{4}}N\]                             

    B)  \[1\times {{10}^{5}}N\]

    C)  \[36\times {{10}^{7}}N\]             

    D)         \[36\times {{10}^{5}}N\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Given,\[m=1000\,\,kg,\,\,v=72\,\,km/h\]and\[\Delta t=0.2\,\,s\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{F}_{av}}=\frac{m{{v}_{av}}}{\Delta t}\]                       \[=\frac{1000\times 20\times 10}{0.2}\]                      \[=1\times {{10}^{5}}N\]
