An engineer is modelling the braking distance of a car of mass m m\,m decelerating to rest on a horizontal road under a constant braking force FFF.

Describe how the engineer could adapt this model to investigate the effect of a downward incline of angle θ \theta\,θ to the horizontal on the car's braking distance.
