M2 Energy, Work and Power

Hello,

I'm stuck on this question and I would appreciate any help.

With its engine working at a constant rate of 9800 W, a car of mass 800kg can move down a slope at twice the speed it can attain when moving up that slope.
The slope is inclined at an angle of θ\theta to the horizontal, where sinθ=156 sin\theta = \frac{1}{56} .

Assuming a constant resistance throughout, find the magnitude of the resistance.
