Q

to force, to obligate

A

obligar

Usually, “forzar” means “obligar” but with some kind of violence or physical force. “Obligar” is used referred to force but without violence or physical force.

So in your sentence, it should be “obligar”, because we don’t picture the police forcing you to stop de car by physical force, but by authority. (unless you are a criminal and they force you by physical force)

Q

to find

A

hallar

Synonms but:

“Hallar” implies knowing where something is, whereas “Encontrar” means you have what you where looking for.

Hallar means to find (as result of searching), while encontrar has a wider meaning, it’s more like to find including finding by chance or to encounter, as in the meaning to meet someone.

Hallar means to come upon someone or something that is sought.

Same as hallar, encontrar means to find something or someone. No matter whether you’ve been looking for it or not.
