Question
A 2.1 × 103 kg car starts from rest at the top of a driveway that is sloped at an angle of 20.0° with the horizontal. An average friction force of 4.0 × 103 N impedes the car’s motion so that the car’s speed at the bottom of the driveway is 3.8 m/s. What is the length of the driveway?

Answer:
The Length of the driveway is 4.98 m
Explanation:
we have to determine the length of the driveway
so we use following equations
W=ΔK.E where W is work and ΔK.E change in the kinetic energy
also
also
W = F.d Where F is Force and d is distance
Given that
m = 2100 Kg
θ= 20.0°
V=3.8 m/s V is the car’s speed at the bottom of the driveway
W=Δ K.E
Since the x component of the gravity is
so
And the Net force is
And the length of the driveway = W / (
) = 15162/3038.77 = 4.98 m
So this the length of the driveway.
