    Calculating Wheel Torque to Accelerate Up a Hill

    i have to design a vehicle that will accelerate up a 1/8 gradient hill to 11.11m/s in 15s i need the effort required and wheel torque. mass = 170kg rolling resistance = 50N/t (0.05N/kg) air resistance = 13.6N g = 9.81m/s^2 i have calculated: a = 11.11*(1/15) = 0.74m/s^2 theta =...
