In both cases a spaceship is pulling two cargo pods, one emply and one full. At the instant shown, the speed of the
pods and spaceships is 300 m/s, but they have different accelerations as shown. All masses are given in terms of M,
the mass of an empty pod.
Case A
a = 3.0 m/s²
mshipA

m2A = M
m1A = 2M
Case B

m¡B = M
(a) Will the tension at point S in the tow rod be (i) greater in Case A, (ii) greater in Case B, or (iii) the same in
both cases?
Explain your reasoning.
(b) Will the tension at point T in the tow rod be (i) greater in Case A, (ii) greater in Case B, or (iii) the same in
both cases?
Explain your reasoning.
