6. Intro to Forces (Dynamics) / Forces & Kinematics / Problem 7

A crash test dummy equipped with a force sensor is used to measure the impact force on a passenger during a frontal collision. The 55.00-kg dummy is buckled up with a seat belt. The car, initially moving at a speed of 60.00 km/h, collides with a thick wall. The airbag is deployed, and brings the dummy to rest at a distance of 125.0 cm. Determine the magnitude of the impact force on the dummy from the airbag as measured by the force sensor.
