Question:
A. A car that weighs 12000.0 N is initially moving at a speed of 57.0 km/hr when the brakes are applied and the car is brought to a stop in 2.6 s. Find the magnitude of the force that stops the car, assuming it is constant.
B. What distance does the car move during this time?
Okay so I drew the diagram and I am planning on using the f=ma equation but I think I need to solve for a first using Vf=Vo + at. Am I on the right track or am I completely off??
