A vehicle of mass m moves along an inclined road with uniform motion and speed vo. At time t = 0, a constant braking FB starts acting on it. By law of dynamics of rigid bodies and calculus, derive a general equation of total braking distance S which the car travels downhill the road with angle a with the horizontal.
