Suppose a car travels 108 km at a speed of 30.0 m/s, and uses 2.0 gal of gasoline. Only 30% of the gasoline goes into useful work by the force that keeps the car moving at constant speed despite friction. (The energy content of gasoline is about 140 MJ/ gal. ) What is the magnitude of the force exerted to keep the car moving at constant speed? 666 N 650 N 778 N 888 N

A loaded ore car has a mass of 950 kg and rolls on rails with negligible friction. It starts from rest and is pulled up a mine shaft by a cable connected to a winch. The shaft is inclined at 35.5∘ above the horizontal. The car accelerates uniformly to a speed of 2.25 m/s in 11.5 s and then continues at constant speed. (a) What power must the winch motor provide when the car is moving at constant speed? kW (b) What maximum power must the motor provide? kW (c) What total energy transfers out of the motor by work by the time the car moves off the end of the track, which is of length 1,250 m? J
