a car of mass 1200 kg is towed up a ghat having an angle of inclination of 30 . if the coefficient of rolling friction between the tyres and the road is 0.004 ,find the force required to tow up the car at uniform speed ? pls experts answer it fast its urgent ....

Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

Given information is,
Mass of the car M = 1200 kg; Angle of inclination θ = 300; coefficient of rolling friction μr = 0.004.

The situation is shown in the below diagram.


So, in order to pull it up with constant velocity, we have to apply a force F as,
F = Mg sin θ + Ffri = Mg sin θ + μ Mg cos θ = Mg21+3F = 1200×10×2.7322 = 6000×2.732  F= 16.39 kN



Hope this information will clear your doubts about the topic.
