A 2600-pound truck is stopped at a red light on a hill with an incline of 25°. Ignoring the force of friction, what force is required to keep the truck from rolling down the hill? (Show work)

The force required to keep this truck from rolling down the hill is opposed by the force of friction, comparative to the 2600 pounds of force against this friction. It should be that this opposing force is at work more towards the bottom of this hill, and thus the question asks the magnitude of latter force to keep this truck idle -

|| F || = sin( 25 ) * ( Fg ) = sin( 25 ) * ( 2600 lb ) = ( About ) 1098.80748 pounds

This can be rounded to a solution of 1099 pounds
