2. A car of mass 900 kg is moving down a straight road which is inclined at an angle \(\alpha\) to the horizontal, where \(\sin \alpha = \frac { 1 } { 12 }\) The engine of the car is working at a constant rate of 15 kW .
The resistance to the motion of the car is modelled as a constant force of magnitude 400 N . Find the acceleration of the car at the instant when it is moving at \(16 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\)
