How many liters of gasoline will be required in one hour


A 1500 kg car is traveling up on a road with a slope of 15% (i.e. rise of 15 on a run of 100) at a constant speed. Knowing that the maximum power output of the car is 160 hp, at what speed can the car travel if air resistance is negligible? Also, knowing that 1 L (i.e. one liter) of regular gas provides 34.8 MJ of energy, how many liters of gasoline will be required in one hour if the speed has an efficiency of 20%?
