Question 61 – A biochemical trolley of mass 15 kg is towing a trailer of mass 5 kg along a straight horizontal pathway. The trailer and the trolley are connected by a light inextensible tow-bar. The engine of the trolley exerts a driving force of magnitude 100 N. The trailer and the trolley experience resistances of magnitude 10 N and 30 N respectively. (a) Form 2 equations with unknowns T and a, that represents the equilibrium for the 2 systems of the trolley and trailer. (b) Solve the simultaneous equations from the 2 equations that are obtained in part (a) of this question. T is the tension of the tow-bar and a is the acceleration.

Answer 61 – (a) Trolley : 100 - 30 - T = 70 - T = 15a as Equation (1). Trailer : T - 10 = 5a as Equation (2). (b) Trailer : 3 times Equation (2) : 3T - 30 = 15a as Equation (3). Equation (1) - Equation (3) = 100 - 4T = 0 then T = 100 / 4 = 25 N. From Equation (2), 5a = T - 10 then a = (T - 10) / 5 = (25 - 10) / 5 = 3 N / kg.

We are having proplem with the persperation smell in ETT/ECHO room in our cardiac hospital.The 2 Ton of AC is not conditioning the environment. We have to use exhaust fan to through out of the room bad air. Could anyone suggest how to coup with this effectively using chemical engineering. Any permanent solution to neutralise the bad smell.The Air freshners are not doing enough instead making a bad odour.
