    Find the Net Force for 110kg bike traveling at 22.7 m/s to a complete stop in 10s
    Find the Net force required to bring a 110 kg bike and rider traveling at a velocity of 22.7 m/s to a complete stop in 10 seconds? Assume that the bike is traveling in the positive x direction.

    When I first attempted this question I got -249.7. However apparently that is wrong? Please Help

    Your answer is correct. Who or what told you it was wrong?

    Thanks! I thought I had it right but I had an online homework assignment that told me it was incorrect.

    Nothing like an erroneous answer to add confusion where there was none before. Like physics isn't confusing enough to begin with!

    Luckily you know what you're doing. Good job!
