CBSE Class 11-science Answered
A tractor tows a trailer of mass 1000 kg at a speed of 10 m/s. On level road the tension in the string is 1000 N. Find the tension in the coupling when the tractor ascends a road having inclination of 1 in 5.

Expert Answer
On a level road, force applied by the truck is equal to the friction that it overcomes.
f = 1000 N
When a tractor ascends the road of inclination 1 in 5 (that is, ), it overcomes frictional force and the component of the weight of the trailer.
So, the tension in the coupling is
