A 25-ton (50,000-lb) truck coasts down a steep 7% mountain grade without brakes, as shown in Fig. P9.71. The truck’s ultimate steady-state speed, V, is determined by a balance between weight, rolling resistance, and aerodynamic drag. Determine V if the rolling resistance for a truck on concrete is 1.2% of the weight and the drag coefficient based on frontal area is 0.76.
