Question

The man says to the horse ”Giddup” (which is horse for ”go”). The horse replies: ”There’s no point. Newton’s third law says that the cart will exert a force on me equal and opposite to the force I exert on it. Sum of forces = zero, so the acceleration will be zero.” How would you answer the horse?

Step 1

The horse is referring to Newton's third law, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In this context, the horse is saying that if it exerts a force on the cart to move forward, the cart will exert an equal and opposite force Show more…
