as I believe, using the SUVAT equations s=0.3m v=0.0ms^-1 u=7.0ms^-1 a is unknown t is unknown p=2100 kgms^-1 using v^2=u^2+2as I can obtain 0=49+0.6a giving a=-81.67ms^-2 then F=ma F=300*81.67 so F=24498 N But I'm stuck from this point

I am struggling to calculate the required resistance of a single seater race cars nosecone in the event of a head on collision to the nosecone. The data I have been given is: Mass of car: 300kg Velocity at impact: 7ms^-1 Impacting to a non-yielding barrier Length of nosecone 0.3m Peak...
