Concept explainers

Newton’s Third Law of Motion

The horse pulls the cart and the cart pulls the horse in response as per Newton third law. So the big question is, “Don’t the two forces cancel each other? How does the cart accelerate?”

Question

A train of mass 1000 tons moves in the latitude 60° north. Find the magnitude and direction of the lateral force that the train exerts on the rails if it moves with a velocity of 15 m/s.
