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 1580 kg rocket is to be launched with an initial upward speed of 59.0 m/s. In order to assist its engines, the engineers will start it from rest on a ramp that rises 53° above the horizontal (Figure 1). At the bottom, the ramp turns upward and launches the rocket vertically. The engines provide a constant forward thrust of 2000 N, and friction with the ramp surface is a constant 500 N. Figure Rocket starts here. 53° < 1 of 1 Rocket is. -launched upward. Part A How far from the base of the ramp should the rocket start, as measured along the surface of the ramp?
