    Compute the terminal speed of a car as it coasts down the incline

    Compute the terminal speed of a car as it coasts down the incline

    Homework Statement A Toyota Prius has a total mass of 1520 kg when carrying passengers. The driver shifts the car into neutral and coasts down a long, straight section of road with a grade of 9% (the term "grade" means slope). The car eventually reaches a terminal speed.
