5 A car of mass 1600 kg is travelling uphill along a straight road inclined at \(4.7 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal. The power developed by the car is constant and equal to 120 kW . The car is towing a caravan and together they have a maximum speed of \(32 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) uphill.
In this question you may model any resistances to motion as negligible.
- Determine the mass of the caravan.
The caravan is now detached from the car. Continuing up the same road, the car passes a point A at a speed of \(20 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\). The car later passes through a point \(B\) on the same road such that \(A B = 80 \mathrm {~m}\) and the car takes 3.54 seconds to travel from A to B . The power developed by the car while travelling from A to B is constant and equal to 80 kW .
- Determine the speed of the car at B .
- State one possible refinement to the model used in parts (a) and (b).
