Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β€” Kinetics of Particles: Problem 3_110

3/110 Extensive testing of an experimental 2000-lb automobile reveals the aerodynamic drag force \( F_D \) and the total nonaerodynamic rolling-resistance force \( F_R \) to be as shown in the plot. Determine (a) the power required for steady speeds of 30 and 60 mi/hr on a level road, (b) the power required for a steady speed of 60 mi/hr both up and down a 6-percent incline, and (c) the steady speed at which no power is required going down the 6-percent incline.

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Find: (a) the power required for steady speeds of 30 and 60 mi/hr on a; (b) the power required for a steady speed of 60 mi/hr both up an; (c) the steady speed at which no power is required going down th
