Answer:

4180 N

Explanation:

In order to keep the truck balanced and stationary, the force of friction on the truck must be equal to the component of the weight of the truck acting parallel to the slope.

The component of the weight of the truck acting parallel to the slope is:

mg sin \theta

where

m = 3500 kg is the mass of the truck

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\theta=7.0^{\circ} is the angle of the slope

Therefore, the force of friction must be equal to

F=(3500)(9.8)(sin 7.0^{\circ})=4180 N
