A 1780-pound car is parked on a street that makes an angle of 15° with the horizontal. Find the magnitude of the force required to keep the car from rolling down the hill.

Respuesta :

We will determine the force required as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} F=(890kg\ast9.8m/s^2)sin(15)\Rightarrow F=2257.419711...N \\ \\ \Rightarrow F\approx2257.4N \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, the force required is approximately 2257.4 N.
