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 roller coaster car goes through a loop, which can be modeled as a portion of a circular arc, at a constant speed. At the top of the loop (when the roller coaster is upside down), how does the magnitude of the normal force compare to the roller coaster car's weight? a) The normal force is greater than the weight b) The normal force is less than the weight c) The normal force is equal to the weight d) There isn't enough information to tell, since the answer depends on the roller coaster car's speed
