Question

A 1 tonne caravan is being towed by a car which provides a constant drawbar pull of 40 N. If the
resistance to motion is 20 N, calculate the acceleration of the car and the caravan.

Answer 1

Acceleration of car 1/25 acceleration of carravan 1/50

Answer 2

F = m× (v- u )/t
40=1000 × a
A = 1/25 of car
A= 1/50 of caravan
