Question:
A locomotive pulls a train consisting of three equal boxcars with constant acceleration along a straight, frictionless track. Suppose that the tension in the coupling between the locomotive and the first boxcar is 12000 N. What is the tension in the coupling between the first and the second boxcar? The second and the third? Does the answer depend on the absence of friction?
