Question
A truck has an engine power of 180 HP and it has empty weight of 3000 kg and the protitable load is
15000 kg. Truck moves 3% in upgrade direction. The engine performance is 0,75, the friction
coefficient between the tire and the surface is 0,30 , the Rolling resistance coefficient is 20 kg/t, truck
width is 2,40 meters, the height is 2,80 meters, air resistance coefficients is 0,060 and the rear tires are
powered.
a)Calculate the vehicle speed while climbing the exiting upgrade.
b) If the speed of the vehicle is 15 km/h, calculate the upgrade value.
