    F = 7500 N

    Explanation:

    given,

    mass of the car, m = 1200 Kg

    initial speed of the car, v = 25 m/s

    final speed of car = 0 m/s

    time in which car is at rest, t = 5 s

    distance = 50 m

    Force = ?

    using equation of motion for the calculation of acceleration.

    v² = u² + 2 a s

    0² = 25² + 2 x a x 50

    100 a = - 625

    a = - 6.25 m/s²

    negative sign shows deceleration of the car

    now, force calculation

    F = m a

    F = 1200 x 6.25

    F = 7500 N

    hence, net force is equal to F = 7500 N
