Answer:

here,

the mass of car , m = 800 kg

the initial speed of car , u = 100 mph

u = 44.7 m/s

time taken , t = 0.8 s

a)

the change in momentum of the car , dP = Pf - Pi

dP = m * 0 - m * u

dP = - 800 * 44.7 kg.m/s

dP = - 3.58 * 10^4 kg.m/s

b)

the average force exerted on the car , F = dP /t

F = - 3.58 * 10^4 /(0.8) N

F = - 4.47 * 10^4 N

c)

this force is exerted by road on the car
