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?”

Question

100%

Calculate the net force (in Newtons) acting on a 16 kg object, if it accelerates 4 m/s² on a frictionless surface.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given:

Mass of object is $m = 16 kg$

Acceleration of object is $a = 4 m / s^{2}$

Object accelerates on friction-less surface.

Note:

$1 N = 1 kg \cdot m / s^{2}$

Find:

Net force on the object.
