    To calcculate the braking force of the car moving, we use Newton's second law of motion which relates the acceleration and the force of an object moving. The force of an object moving is directly proportional to its acceleration and the proportionality constant is the mass of the object. It is expressed as:

    Force = ma

    Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of a moving object. We calculate acceleration from the velocity and the time given above.

    a = (10 m/s) / 5 s = 2 m/s^2

    So,

    Force = ma

    Force = 1000 kg (2 m/s^2)

    Force = 2000 kg m/s^2 or 2000 N
