Highway safety engineers want to design roadside barriers that will crumple in the event that a car drives off the road and collides with them, slowing
down the car more gradually. The average person has a mass of 68 kg and
travels on a highway at a velocity of 27 m/s. If the engineers know that the
maximum force that a person can safely withstand is 2180 N, approximately
how much time is required to crumple the barrier to safely slow the person
with this force?
