The power due to the engine can be calculated using the formula:

Power = Force × Velocity

In this case, the force acting against the car's motion is the frictional force. So, the power due to the engine can be calculated as follows:

Power = Frictional Force × Velocity

Given that the frictional force is 400N and the velocity is 100m/s, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Power = 400N × 100m/s

Power = 40,000 N·m/s

Therefore, the power due to the engine is 40,000 watts (W).
