Calculate the magnitude of the average force on a bumper


A car's bumper is designed to withstand a 6.84-km/h (1.9-m/s) collision with an immovable object without damage to the body of the car. The bumper cushions the shock by absorbing the force over a distance. Calculate the magnitude of the average force on a bumper that collapses 0.270 m while bringing a 840-kg car to rest from an initial speed of 1.9 m/s.
