A transport truck driving at a constant speed of 83.3 km/hr on a flat stretch of highway must produce 2,649 N of force to overcome rolling friction and air resistance. How much horsepower is required from the engine under these conditions [round your final answer to one decimal place]? Ignore any mechanical losses in the drivetrain. {1 hp = 746 W}
