Find the power of an engine in kilowatts which pulls a train of mass 600 tonnes up an incline of 1 in 100 at the rate of 60km/hr. The weight of the engine is 200 tonnes and the resistance due to friction is 50 Newton's per tonne.
Given,
Mass of train = 600 tonnes
Mass of engine = 200 tonnes
Total mass (m) = (600 + 200) tonnes = 800 * 103kg
Inclination = 1 in 100
Speed of train (u) = 60km/h=16.67m/s
Frictional Force (Fr)=50Newton/tonnes=50∗800=40000N
