    The Force of a Tractor Pulling a Trailer Up an Incline

    Ok! I made a coordination where x-axis goes through this inclination. Sigma Fx = max = 0 because ax = 0 Fx = N + W + "Pull" Fx = 0 + mgsin21 + "Pull" = 0 Pull = -15452 N am I right?

    The Force of a Tractor Pulling a Trailer Up an Incline

    A farm tractor tows a 4400-kg trailer up a 21 degree incline at a steady speed of 3.0 m/s. What force does the tractor exert on the trailer? (Ignore friction.) How would you get the answer 15000 N.
