A car of mass of 1350 kg travelling at 35.0 m/s along a highway runs out of gas and starts to coast at the bottom of a hill 15.0m high. The length of the road is 540.0 m and the force of friction on the car is 750.0 N will the car make it to the top of the hill?
I) if so, what will it’s speed be at that point?
II) if not, how much energy would it need to reach the top?

A 1250 kg car drives up a hill that is 15.2 m high. During the drive, two nonconservative forces do work on the car: (i) the force of friction, and (ii) the force generated by the car's engine. The work done by friction is −2.91×105 J ; the work done by the engine is 6.44×105 J . Part A Find the change in the car's kinetic energy from the bottom of the hill to the top of the hill.

The 2040 kg cable car shown in the figure descends a 200-m-high hill. In addition to its brakes, the cable car controls its speed by pulling an 1860 kg counterweight up the other side of the hill. The rolling friction of both the cable car and the counterweight are negligible. Part A: How much braking force does the cable car need to descend at constant speed? Part B: One day the brakes fail just as the cable car leaves the...
