If every action has an equal and opposite reaction then how a horse pull a cart
Answers
Answer:
to make the cart move the horse bends forward and pushes the ground with its feet when the forward reaction to the backwards push of the horse is greater than the opposing frictional forces of the wheels the cart moves
When the horse walks in the forward direction (with the cart attached to it), it exerts a force in the backward direction on the Earth. An equal force in the opposite direction (forward direction) is applied on the horse by the Earth. This force moves the horse and the cart forward.
The velocity at which the horse can move by applying a force on the earth depends on the mass of the horse (and the cart attached to it). The heavier the cart, the slower the motion of the horse (for a given amount of force applied by the horse on the Earth). If the cart is too heavy, the force exerted by the horse on the Earth will be insufficient to even overcome the force of inertia. In this case, the horse will not be able to pull the cart.
