action and reaction force are equal but still do not cancel each other...why
Answers
Answer:
Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. This indicates that forces always act in pairs. Reaction forces are equal and opposite, but they are not balanced forces because they act on different objects so they don't cancel each other out.

aur us pichle wale question ka ye answer h :-
An 8000 kg engine pulls a train of 5 wagons,each of 2000kg along a horizontal track. if the engine exerts a force of 40000N and the track offers a friction force of 5000N, then calculate: (a) the net accelerating force (b) the acceleration of the train
Given parameters
Mass of the engine (M) = 8000 kg
Number of wagons = 5
Mass of the wagons (m) = 2000 kg
Force exerted by the engine (F ) = 40000 N
Frictional force offered by the track (Ff) = 5000 N
(a) Net force (Fa) = F – Ff
Fa = 40000 N – 5000 N
Fa = 35000 N
(b) Let us consider the acceleration of the train to be a m/s2
Acceleration is the ratio of net acceleration force by mass, i.e.
a = Fa/m
Where m is the mass of the train, it can be calculated as follows
The total mass of the train (m) = Mass of the engine + (Mass of the wagons × Number of wagons)
m = 8000 + (5 × 2000)
m = 18000 kg
Acceleration of the train (a) = 35000/18000
a = 1.944m/s2
