Question

A 1000 kg car is pulling a310 kg trailer. Together, the car andtrailer have an acceleration of 2.13m/s2 in the forward direction. Neglecting frictionalforces on the trailer, determine the following (including sign).(a) the net force on the car
1 N

(b) the net force on the trailer
2 N

(c) the force exerted by the trailer on the car
3 N

(d) the resultant force exerted by the car on the road magnitude 4 N direction 5° (counterclockwise from the positivex axis) magnitude 4 N direction 5° (counterclockwise from the positivex axis)

Explanation / Answer

a, F1=a*(M+m)=2.13*(1000+310)=2790.3 N b,F2=a*m=310*2.13=660.3N c,F3=F2-F1=2790.3-660.3=2130 N
