Calculate the power output needed for a 950-kg car to climb a 2.00° slope at a constant 30.0 m/s while encountering wind resistance and friction totaling 600 N.
Added by Amy G.
Step 1
Given: Mass of the car (m) = 950 kg Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^2 Angle of the slope (θ) = 2.00° Speed of the car (v) = 30.0 m/s Total resistance force (Fr) = 600 N Calculate the force needed to overcome the slope: Force due to gravity = m * g * Show more…
