Calculate the power in horsepower required to accelerate

Reference no: EM13616738

Resistance to the motion of an automobile consists of road friction, which is almost independent of speed, and air drag, which is proportional to speed-squared. For a certain car with a weight of 12000 N, the total resistant force F is given by F = 300 + 1.8v², with F in newtons and v in meters per second. Calculate the power (in horsepower) required to accelerate the car at 0.90 m/s2 when the speed is 84 km/h.
