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 block of wood provided a decelerating force of -500 N to stop the penetration of a 0.005 kg spear upon impact. What is the depth of penetration of the spear upon collision when its initial velocity is +400 m/s.
