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

Two people each pull with 300N on a rope in a tug of war. What is net force on the rope? How much force is exerted on each person by the rope?
