When an automobile moves by constant speed down a highway


When an automobile moves by constant speed down a highway, most of the power developed by the engine is utilized to compensate for the mechanical energy loss due to frictional forces exerted on the car with the air and the road. If the power developed by the engine is 181 hp, estimate the total friction force acting on the car when it is moving at a speed off 29 m/s. One horsepower equals 746 W.
