An advertisement claims that a particular automobile can "stop on a dime." What net force would actually be necessary to stop an automobile of mass 910 kgkg traveling initially at a speed of 53.0 km/hkm/h in a distance equal to the diameter of a dime, which is 1.8 cmcm? Express your answer in newtons.
