The driver of a three-wheeler moving with a speed of $36\; km/h$ sees a child standing in the middle of the road and brings his vehicle to rest in $4.0\; s$ just in time to save the child. What is the average retarding force (in $N$) on the vehicle? The mass of the three-wheeler is $400\; kg$ and the mass of the driver is $65\; kg$.

  • A
    $465$
  • B
    $2312.5$
  • C
