Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 4.30P
A large box containing your new computer sits on the bed of your pickup truck. You are stopped at a red light. When the light turns green, you stomp on the gas and the truck accelerates. To your horror, the box starts to slide toward the back of the truck. Draw clearly labeled free-body diagrams for the truck and for the box. Indicate pairs of forces, if any, that are third-law action reaction pairs. (The horizontal truck bed is not frictionless.)
