I have worked this problem repeatedly and keep getting the answer 4.0, but I know that the answer is 5.1. What am I doing wrong?
A 2.1 x 10^3 kg car starts from rest at the top of a driveway that is sloped at an angle of 20 degrees with the horizontal. An average friction force of 4.0 x 10^3 N impedes the car's motion so that the car's speed at the bottom of the driveway is 3.8 m/s. What is the length of the driveway?
