A 1100-kg car pulls a boat on a trailer. (Enter the magnitudes.) (a) What total force resists the motion of the car, boat, and trailer, if the car exerts a 1930-N force on the road and produces an acceleration of 0.530 m/s2? The mass of the boat plus trailer is 600 kg. N (b) What is the force in the hitch between the car and the trailer if 80% of the resisting forces are experienced by the boat and trailer?
