Two teams of nine members each engage in a tug of war. Each of the first team's members has an average mass of 72 kg and exerts an average force of 1350 N horizontally. Each of the second team's members has an average mass of 77 kg and exerts an average force of 1373 N horizontally.

A car of mass m₁ 1000 kg is connected to a trailer of mass m2 = 400 kg by a taut inextensible cable. The car's engine provides a constant forward driving force Fx = 7000 N, which causes the car-plus-trailer to accelerate forwards along the horizontal x-axis. The tension of the cable produces a force on the trailer and also a force on the car. You may assume that the magnitude of the two forces is the same. You may also ignore friction. What is the tension in the cable joining the car to the trailer? Give your answer by entering a number, correct to an appropriate number of significant figures, in the empty box below.
