A freight train consists of two 8.00105kgengines and 45 cars with average masses of 5.50105kg . (a) What force must each engine exert backward on the track to accelerate the train at a rate of 5.0010-2m/s2if the force of friction is 7.50105Nassuming the engines exert identical forces? This is not a large frictional force for such a massive system. Rolling friction for trains is small, and consequently, trains are very energy-efficient transportation systems. (b) What is the force in the coupling between the 37th and 38th cars (this is the force each exerts on the other), assuming all cars have the same mass and that friction is evenly distributed among all of the cars and engines?
A crate is located in the center of a flatbed truck. The truck accelerates to the east and the crate moves with it, not sliding at all. What is the direction of the friction force exerted by the truck on the crate? (a) It is to the west. (b) It is to the east. (c) No friction force exists because the crate is not sliding.

Construct Your Own Problem Consider the tension in an elevator cable during the time the elevator starts from rest and accelerates its load upward to some cruising velocity. Taking the elevator and its load to be the system of interest, draw a free-body diagram. Then calculate the tension in the cable. Among the things to consider are the mass of the elevator and its load, the final velocity, and the time taken to reach that velocity.

Two children push on opposite sides of a door during play. Both push horizontally and perpendicular to the door. One child pushes with a force of 17.5 N at a distance of 0.600 m from the hinges, and the second child pushes at a distance of 0.450 m. What force must the second child exert to keep the door from moving? Assume friction is negligible.
