Chapter 13.4, Problem 2P
The two boxcars A and B have a weight of 20 000 lb and 30 000 lb, respectively. If they are freely coasting down the incline when the brakes are applied to all the wheels of car A, determine the force in the coupling C between the two cars. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheels of A and the tracks is μk = 0.5. The wheels of car B are free to roll. Neglect their mass in the calculation. Suggestion: Solve the problem by representing single resultant normal forces acting on A and B, respectively.
