The acceleration of the cart is zero
Explanation:
There are 4 forces acting on the cart:
- The 3 forces of F=15 N each, applied forward by three boys
- The force of F'=45 N applied backward by the horse
So we can write Newton's second law of motion as:
where
m is the mass of the cart
a is its acceleration
Here we have
m = 20 kg
So we can solve the equation for a, the acceleration of the cart:
This means that the acceleration of the cart is zero, because the force applied by the horse perfectly balance the forces applied by the three boys.
