- A car weighs 1100kg and can accelerate from 0 to 60m/h in 7.1 seconds on a flat ground. what is the steepest grade your driveway can be if your house is located on a hill? Assume no friction forces, and approximate the driveway as a straight inclined plane.arrow_forwardTwo boxes (Box A = 9.7 kg and Box B = 5.4 kg) are connected by acord running over a pulley. The coefficient of kinetic friction betweenbox A and the table is 0.18. We ignore the mass of the cord and pulleyand any friction in the pulley, which means we can assume that a forceapplied to one end of the cord will have the same magnitude at theother end. We wish to find the tension of the cord while accelerating (inN), assuming the cord doesn’t stretch. As box B moves down, box Amoves to the right. Hint: Solve for the acceleration of the system first.arrow_forwardYou are climbing on a hill that is inclined at 22° with the horizontal and you wish to build a rope tow to pull yourself up.
