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?”

Suppose you have a stack of 17 identical steel bars (steel bars have a mass of 1.00kg each). You are required to pull out bar number 16 from the stack (counting from the top of the stack down). Assuming that your assistant holds all other bars in place. If the coefficient of friction between steel and steel is 0.750, how hard do you have to pull (in N)?

Two boxes (Box A = 9.7 kg and Box B = 5.4 kg) are connected by acord running over a pulley. The coefficient of kinetic friction betweenbox A and the table is 0.18. We ignore the mass of the cord and pulleyand any friction in the pulley, which means we can assume that a forceapplied to one end of the cord will have the same magnitude at theother end. We wish to find the tension of the cord while accelerating (inN), assuming the cord doesn’t stretch. As box B moves down, box Amoves to the right. Hint: Solve for the acceleration of the system first.
