Two cars are crash tested. Car A has a crumple zone, B doesn't. Both cars have mass 1500kg and a driver of mass 80kg and crash at 20m/s. Cars A and B take 0.8 and 0.2 seconds to stop respectively. Using this information, are crumple zones a necessity? (6)

A Car of mass 1000kg applies a constant 200N breaking force over a distance of 30m and comes to a complete stop. How fast was the car going the instant the brakes were engaged.
