The braking distance of a car from 120 km/h is 50 m assuming the pavement is level. (a) if the pavement is with 6° inclination, what will be the braking distance (in meter) of the car going up from 120km/h? (b) and if the car is going down at 2% inclination, what is its braking distance (in meter) from 120km/h? Note: Assume the breaking force is not dependent of the grade.
