    Bus traveling at constant speed on a 6.0° incline

    just friction and air resistance. so the net force would be in the opposite direction to motion?

    Bus traveling at constant speed on a 6.0° incline

    so there would also be frictional force as well as air resistance. but surely not thrust because the engine is off in the other directions, there would be weight and normal contact force

    Bus traveling at constant speed on a 6.0° incline

    the only force would be air resistance? so would the net force be the force due to air resistance only and, therefore, it decelerates to a stop?

    Bus traveling at constant speed on a 6.0° incline

    Homework Statement A bus is traveling at a constant speed of 6.2ms-1 along a section of road that is inclined at an angle of 6.0degrees to the horizontal. a) the total output power of the engine of the bus is 70kW and the efficiency of the engine is 35%. calculate the power to the engine b)...
