Question: In 1992, a 14-kg meteorite struck a car in Peekskill, NY, leaving a 20-cm-deep dent in the trunk.

Part A: If the meteorite was moving at 500 m/s before striking the car, what was the magnitude of its acceleration while stopping?

I don't just need an answer, work and explanations/walkthrough would be much appreciated! Thanks.
