500
In a particular crash test, an automobile of mass 1500 kg collides with a wall. The initial and final velocities of the automobile are vi=-15.0 m/s and vf = 2.6 m/s (both in the i-hat direction). If the collision lasts for 0.150 s, find the impulse on the automobile due to the collision and the average force exerted on the automobile.
J=2.6x104 kg*m/s
F=1.76x105 N in the i-hat direction
