,1. A van of mass 900 kg is moving along a straight horizontal road.
At the instant when the speed of the van is v m s−1, the resistance to the motion of the
van is modelled as a force of magnitude (500 + 7v) N.
When the engine of the van is working at a constant rate of 18 kW, the van is moving
along the road at a constant speed V m s−1
(a) Find the value of V.

Later on, the van is moving up a straight road that is inclined to the horizontal at an
1
angle θ , where sin θ =
21
At the instant when the speed of the van is v m s−1, the resistance to the motion of the
van from non-gravitational forces is modelled as a force of magnitude (500 + 7v) N.
The engine of the van is again working at a constant rate of 18 kW.
(b) Find the acceleration of the van at the instant when v = 15
