Answer

3100 N

Work Step by Step

Let's apply equation 11.5 to find the force applied to the car. $\frac{F_{1}}{A_{1}}=\frac{F_{2}}{A_{2}}$ ; Let's plug known values into this equation. $\frac{F_{1}}{\pi r_{1}^{2}}=\frac{F_{2}}{\pi r_{2}^{2}}=>F_{2}=F_{1}(\frac{r_{2}^{2}}{r_{1}^{2}})$ $F_{2}=45\space N\times(8.3\space N)^{2}=3100\space N$
