A locomotive is pulling 19 freight cars, each of which is loaded with the same amount of weight. The mass of each freight car (with its load) is 37,000 kg. If the train is accelerating at .22 m/s^2 on a level track, what is the tension in the coupling between the third and fourth cars?
(The car nearest the locomotive is counted as the first car, and friction is negligible.)

A freight train consists of 4 engines at the front, followed by 30 rail cars. Both the engines and rail cars have the same mass of 722655 kilograms each. Each engine exerts the same force backward on the track to push the train forward. The total force of friction on the entire train is 698119 Newtons and is evenly distributed among all of the cars and engines. Even with this friction present, the train engines are able to accelerate the...

A freight train consists of two kg 1000.8 4 − × engines and 45 cars with average masses of kg 1050.5 4 × . (a) What force must each engine exert backward on the track to accelerate the train at a rate of 2 –2 m/s 10.005 × if the force of friction is N 1050.7 5× , assuming the engines exert identical forces? This is not a large frictional force for such a massive system. Rolling friction for trains...

A toy freight train consists of an engine and three identical cars. The train is moving to the right at constant speed along a straight, level track. Three spring scales are used to connect the cars as follows: spring scale A is located between the engine and the first car; scale B is between the first and second cars; scale C is between the second and third cars. (a) If air resistance and friction are negligible, what are the relative...
