4 2. A racing car of mass 750 kg is moving along a straight horizontal road at a constant speed of U km h–1. The engine of the racing car is working at a constant rate of 60 kW. The resistance to the motion of the racing car is modelled as a force of magnitude 37.5v N, where v m s–1 is the speed of the racing car. Using the model, (a) find the value of U (4) Later on, the racing car is accelerating up a straight road which is inclined to the horizontal at an angle α, where sin α = 5 49 . The engine of the racing car is working at a constant rate of 60 kW. The total resistance to the motion of the racing car from non-gravitational forces is modelled as a force of magnitude 37.5v N, where v m s–1 is the speed of the racing car. At the instant when the acceleration of the racing car is 2 m s–2, the speed of the racing car is V m s–1 Using the model, (b) find the value of V (4) _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ Turn over 5 Question 2 continued _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________
