A 1070 kg hybrid car pushes a 2140 kg Jeep that has died on railroad tracks. If the wheels of the hybrid car push against the ground with 5890 N of force, what is the magnitude of the force between the hybrid car and the Jeep? Assume there is no rolling friction.

F = m a
5890 = (1070+2140) a
a = 5890/(1070+2140)
then
Fjeep = 2140 a
5890 = (1070+2140) a
a = 5890/(1070+2140)
then
Fjeep = 2140 a
