ENGINEERING APPLICATION, CONTEXT-RICH To measure the combined force of friction (rolling friction plus air drag) on a moving car, an automotive engineering team you are on turns off the engine and allows the car to coast down hills of known steepness. The team collects the following data: (1) On a hill, the car can coast at a steady (2) On a hill, the steady coasting speed is The total mass of the car is (a) What is the magnitude of the combined force of friction at and at (b) How much power must the engine deliver to drive the car on a level road at steady speeds of and (c) The maximum power the engine can deliver is What is the angle of the steepest incline up which the car can maintain a steady (d) Assume that the engine delivers the same total useful work from each liter of gas, no matter what the speed. At on a level road, the car gets How many kilometers per liter does it get if it goes instead?
