4An athlete of mass 84kg is running along a straight road. (a)Initially the road is horizontal and he runs at a constant speed of 3ms . The athlete produces a constant power of 60W. Find the resistive force which acts on the athlete. [1] (b)The athlete then runs up a 150m section of the road which is inclined at 0.8 ?to the horizontal. The speed of the athlete at the start of this section of road is3ms and he now produces a constant driving force of 24N. The total resistive force which acts on the athlete along this section of road has constant magnitude 13N.
