A car of mass 900 kg is moving on a straight horizontal road ABCD. There is a constant resistance of magnitude 800 N in the sections AB and BC, and a constant resistance of magnitude R N in the section CD. The power of the car’s engine is a constant 36 kW.
- The car moves from A to B at a constant speed in 120 s. Find the speed of the car and the distance AB.
- The car’s engine is switched off at B.
- The distance BC is 450 m. Find the speed of the car at C.
- The car comes to rest at D. The distance AD is 6637.5 m. Find the deceleration of the car and the value of R.
