I'll make an assumption that the 0.5 km (500 meters) is along the road and not the horizontal distance. With the road the being the hypotenuse of a right triangle, this give sine of the angle with horizontal as (200 m / 500 m) = 0.4

The tangental force necessary is the Force due to gravity times the sine of the angle. (3500 kg)*(9.8 m/s2)*(0.4) = 13720 Newtons. This neglects any frictional forces with the road and in the wheel bearings.

What if your truck weighs 3500 kg you drive up a gentle slope that is 5kg long At the top of the slope you are 200m higher in elevation then when you started with no friction what was the force?

14000N is the correct answer


Why is it difficult to climb a vertical slope than a gentle slope?

Gravity is always pulling objects down so when you climb upward gravity weighs you down, you have to use effort to move yourself in the oposite direction that gravity is pulling you that is why it is harder to climb up a slope. When you climb a gentle slope you still are using energy but it takes longer to reach the same height on a gentle slope versus a verticle slope. On a verticle slope you are climbing higher instead of farther so on each step gravity weighs you down much more than on a gentle slope. When climbing a gentle slope you don't rise as rapidly so gravity doesn't take as much of a toll on you and you have a chamce to recover.
