A care is going at a speed of 21.6 km/hr when it encounters at 12.8 m long slope of angle 30° (in the following figure). The friction coefficient between the road and the tyre is `1/2sqrt3`. Show that no matter how hard the driver applies the brakes, the car will reach the bottom with a speed greater than 36 km/hr. Take g = 10 m/s2.

In a rotating body, \[\alpha = \alpha r\text{ and }\nu = \omega r.\] Thus \[\frac{\alpha}{\alpha} = \frac{\nu}{\omega}.\] Can you use the theorems of ration and proportion studied in algebra so as to write \[\frac{\alpha + \alpha}{\alpha - \alpha} = \frac{\nu + \omega}{\nu - \omega}\]
