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?”

Let's say an astronaut is walking on the moon and wants to test out some basic kinematics. Because there's no atmosphere, there's no air resistance, so the only thing that can cause an object to move faster on the moon is the moon's gravity. Let's say you have a hammer and a feather, each weighing 10.0 kg and 1.00 kg respectively. When you drop them from a height of 1.65 meters, they should both hit the ground at the same time. The gravity on the moon is around 1/6 of what it is on Earth, so you need to figure out how long it'll take for the hammer to reach the ground.
