A car has mass 1000 kg. When the car is travelling at a steady speed of \(v \text{ m s}^{-1}\), where \(v > 2\), the resistance to motion of the car is \((Av + B) \text{ N}\), where \(A\) and \(B\) are constants. The car can travel along a horizontal road at a steady speed of \(18 \text{ m s}^{-1}\) when its engine is working at \(36 \text{ kW}\). The car can travel up a hill inclined at an angle of \(\theta\) to the horizontal, where \(\sin \theta = 0.05\), at a steady speed of \(12 \text{ m s}^{-1}\) when its engine is working at \(21 \text{ kW}\). Find \(A\) and \(B\).
