Step-by-step explanation:

Force = mass × acceleration

Mass = 900kg

Acceleration = velocity ÷ time

Velocity = 60km/hr = 60 × 1000 ÷ 3600

Velocity = 60000 ÷ 3600

Velocity = 16.67m/s

To get the time

Velocity = Distance ÷ time

16.67 = 50 ÷ time

Cross multiply

16.67 × time = 50

time = 50 ÷ 16.67

time = 3 seconds

Acceleration = 16.67 ÷ 3

Acceleration = 5.56m/s²

Therefore, Force = 900 × 5.56

Force = 5004 Newton
