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?”

(a) What is the maximum frictional force in the knee joint of a person who supports 66.0 kg of her mass on that knee? (b) During strenuous exercise, it is possible to exert forces to the joints that are easily 10 times greater than the weight being supported. What is the maximum force of friction under such conditions? The frictional forces in joints are relatively small in all circumstances except when the joints deteriorate, such as from injury or arthritis. Increased frictional forces can cause further damage and pam.

I don't understand why Fs <= Fk. What does the F in (1) and (2) stand for? If it's force applied, wouldn't F = Fs + Fk for box 2, and (F - Fs - Fk) = Fs for box 1? My thinking is that the Force applied on box 2 minus the force of kinetic friction and the force of static friction applied by Box 1 on 2 would equal to the net force. Then the net force of box 2 would cause the same netforce on box 1, if box 1 isn't moving, then it's Fs should be equal to that net force applied on box 1. Therefore Force applied wouldn't be equal to Static Friction Force, and shouldn't it be bigger than the Kinetic Friction Force since it's moving in the direction of Force applied?
