On mountainous downhill roads, escape routes are some- times placed to the side of the road for trucks whose brakes might fail. Assuming a constant upward slope of 26°, calcu- late the horizontal and vertical components of the acceleration of a truck that slowed from 110 km/h to rest in 7.0 s. See Fig. 3–48.

The vertical height of the ramp is 1.5 m above the cars and the horizontal distance he must clear is 22 m. (b) If the ramp is now tilted upward, so that “takeoff angle" is 7.0° above the horizontal, what is the new minimum speed? 22 m -1.5 m - Must clear this point! AAA. FIGURE 3-41 Problem 37.
