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?”

**Problem Statement:**

As shown in the diagram below, a 367 g uniform meter stick on an alien planet is supported horizontally by two vertical strings. The tension in the right string is 0.65 N.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram displays a horizontal meter stick marked with measurements from 0 to 100 centimeters. Two vertical strings support the stick. The exact positions of the strings are not numerically labeled, though they appear positioned symmetrically.

**Task:**

- Determine the tension in the left string.
- Calculate the alien planet's free fall acceleration.

**Provided Information:**

- The provided value for left string tension is **2.9466 N**, which is marked as incorrect.
- The tension in the right string is **0.65 N**.
- The mass of the meter stick is 367 grams.

**Solution Input Field:**

- Alien planet's free fall acceleration: ______

This exercise aims to apply principles of equilibrium and gravitational force to solve for unknown variables related to tension forces and accelerations.
