Expert Solution
Step 1: Air Resistance, Grade Resistance and Rolling Resistance

Air resistance is the resistance caused by the air when it blows on the front of the vehicle.

Grade resistance is the resistance to the movement of vehicle when it goes on the uphill slope.

Rolling resistance is the resistance caused on the motion of vehicles due to the load, friction and tyre inflation.
