nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:106560 N

Explanation:

Given

Let Tension between  2 and 3 car be T_{23} and between 3 &4 is T_{34}

T_{23}-T_{34}=ma

mass of freight car =37,000 kg

acceleration of car=0.48 m/s^2

T_{34} is accelerating all freights behind 3

therefore

T_{34}=5\times ma

T_{34}=5\times 37000\times 0.48=88,800 N

Thus

T_{23}=T_{34}+ma

T_{23}=88,800+37000\times 0.48=88,800+17,760=106560 N
