At an airport, luggage is unloaded from a plane into the three cars of a luggage carrier, as the drawing shows. The acceleration of the carrier is 0.12 mls2, and friction is negligible. The coupling bars have negligible mass. By how much would the tension in each of the coupling bars A, B, and C change if 39 kg of luggage were removed from car 2 and placed in (a) car I and (b) car 3

a) ΔT₁ = -4.68 N,   ΔT₂ = 4.68 N, b) ΔT₂ = 4.68 N, ΔT₁ = 4.68 N

Explanation:

In this exercise we will use Newton's second law.

         ∑F = m a

Let's start with the set of three cars

         F_total = M a

         F_total = M 0.12

where the total mass is the sum of the mass of each charge

          M = m₁ + m₂ + m₃

This is the force with which the three cars are pulled.

Now let's write this law for each vehicle

car 1

         F_total - T₁ = m₁ a

         T₁ = F_total - m₁ a

car 2

         T₁ - T₂ = m₂ a

         T₂ = T₁ - m₂ a

car 3

         T₂ = m₃ a

note that tensions are forces of action and reaction

a) They tell us that 39 kg is removed from car 2 and placed on car 1

         m₂’= m₂ - 39

         m₁'= m₁ + 39

         m₃ ’= m₃

they ask how much each tension varies, let's rewrite Newton's equations

The total force does not change since the mass of the set is the same F_total ’= F_total

car 1

           F_total ’- T₁ ’= m₁’ a

           T₁ ’= F_total - m₁’ a

           T₁ ’= (F_total - m₁ a) - 39 a

           T₁ '= T₁ - 39 0.12

           ΔT₁ = -4.68 N

car 2

           T₁’- T₂ ’= m₂’ a

           T₂ ’= T₁’- m₂’ a

           T₂ '= (T₁'- m₂ a) + 39 a

           T₂ '= T₂ + 39 0.12

           ΔT₂ = 4.68 N

b) in this case the masses remain

            m₁ '= m₁

           m₂ ’= m₂ - 39

           m₃ ’= m₃ + 39

we write Newton's equations

car 3

          T₂ '= m₃' a

          T₂ ’= (m₃ + 39) a

          T₂ '= m₃ a + 39 a

          T₂ '= T₂ + 39 0.12

          ΔT₂ = 4.68 N

car 1

            F_total - T₁ ’= m₁’ a

            T₁ ’= F_total - m₁ a

car 2

            T₁' -T₂ '= m₂' a

            T₁ ’= T₂’- m₂’ a

            T₁ '= (T₂'- m₂ a) + 39 a

            T₁ '= T₁ + 39 0.12

            ΔT₁ = 4.68 N

i sometimes feel that way too. i feel that i should hurt someone because they hurt me, but i wouldnt do it. that would make things so much worse i have so much experience with this stuff

explanation:

when heated, the valance electrons increased their speed and transferred the heat from electron to electron.   i just took the test.
