    B The power output of a vehicle when descending hills

    By applying some simplifications, the power ##P## of a body moving at a speed of ##v## at an incline of ##\alpha > 0^\circ## can be expressed as: ##P = P_{acceleration} + P_{friction} + P_{gravity} + P_{air} = (ma + mgsin(\alpha) + C_{rr}mgcos(\alpha) + 0.5C_dA\rho v^2)\cdot v## If we would...
