A car bumper is designed to bring a 2,253-lb car to a stop from a speed of 4.9 mph while deforming 3.2 in. Assume constant deceleration and determine the average force on the bumper during this stop. (60 mph = 88 ft/sec). Assume all the kinetic energy of the car is converted by the work performed on the bumper Kinetic Eenergy = mv² Work=Fxd
