A tractor with two trailers moves at a constant speed on a straight level road. The mass of the tractor is 5000kg and the mass of each trailer is 25000kg. Determine the force exerted by each of the two trailer hitches

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The force exerted by the hitches depends on several factors such as the rolling resistance of the trailers, the acceleration of the tractor, the speed of the tractor, etc. Is no other information given in this problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thats all that is given :/ Which is why I'm stuck on it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think hence has no acceleration so no force exerted between them
