A bicyclist can coast down a 6.17 degree hill at a constant speed of 6.64 km/h. If the force of air resistance is proportional to the speed vso that Fair = c v, calculate the average force (in N) that must be applied in order to descend the hill at 13.0 km/h. The mass of the cyclist plus bicycle is 77.8 kg.
