If the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is u. = 0.2, determine the maximum constant speed at which the car can travel without sliding up the slope. Neglect the size of the car. (b) Find all the forces on the car of part (a). (c) If the car is treated as a rigid body, draw the free-body-diagram.
