A truck with mass m has a brake failure while going down an icy mountain road of constant downward slope angle a (Figure 1). Initially the truck is moving downhill at speed vo. After careening downhill a distance L with negligible friction, the truck driver steers the runaway vehicle onto a runaway truck ramp of constant upward slope angle B. The truck ramp has a soft sand surface for which the coefficient of rolling friction is µ, .

Newton's Second Law

Newton’s laws of motion describe the relationship between the motion of an object and forces acting on it. Newton’s law of motion has two types as follows:
