Question

Find the power required for a 2000kg2000-\mathrm{kg} car to climb a 100m100-\mathrm{m}-long uphill road with a slope of 3030^{\circ} (from horizontal) in 10 s(a)10 \mathrm{~s}(a) at a constant velocity, (b)(b) from rest toa final velocity of 30 m/s30 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}, and (c) from 35 m/s35 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} to a final velocity of 5 m/s5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}. Disregard friction, air drag, and rolling resistance.

Description:\textbf{Description:}

So if we take a look at the Fig. P3-40\textbf{Fig. P3-40}, we can see a car that wants to climb a 100 m long uphill road. We need to determine a required power for a constant velocity, from the rest to a velocity of 30  ms30 \ \mathrm{~\dfrac{m}{s}} and from 35  ms35 \ \mathrm{~\dfrac{m}{s}} to a 5  ms5 \ \mathrm{~\dfrac{m}{s}}.
