Question:

An out-of-control truck with a mass of 5000 kg is traveling at (about 80 mi/h) when it starts descending a steep (15o) incline. The incline is icy, so the coefficient of friction is only 0.30. Use the work– energy theorem to determine how far the truck will skid (assuming it locks its brakes and skids the whole way) before it comes to rest.
