The frictional force is directed opposite to the motion of the car and has a magnitude of 511 N. A force F is applied to the car by the road and propels the car forward. In addition to these two forces, two other forces act on the car: its weight W and the normal force FN directed perpendicular to the road surface. The length of the road up the hill is 332 m. What should be the magnitude of F, so that the net work done by all the forces acting on the car is 173 kJ?arrow_forwardA simple pendulum is made from a 0.666-m-long string and a small ball attached to its free end.
