Question 41

Multiple Choice

In the figure, an airport luggage-carrying train with a tractor T is pulling three luggage carts, M1, M2, and M3 with an acceleration of 1.2 m/s2. If T = 300 kg, M1 = 200 kg, M2 = 100 kg, and M3 = 100 kg, and air resistance is negligible, then the tension in the connection between cart M2 and cart M1 is In the figure, an airport luggage-carrying train with a tractor T is pulling three luggage carts, M<sub>1</sub>, M<sub>2</sub>, and M<sub>3</sub> with an acceleration of 1.2 m/s<sup>2</sup>.
