Solution

Dear student
Given that
F=300 N
v=18 kmp/h ( 5 mps)
Power =F * v= 300 * 5 = 1500 W

When a horse exerts a force on cart , the cart exerts an equal and opposite force on the horse. Then how come the horse can manage to pull the cart ?

A horse is harnessed to a cart. If the horse tries to pull the cart, the horse must exert a force on the cart. By Newton's third law the cart must then exert an equal and opposite force on the horse. Since the two forces are equal and opposite, they must add to zero, so Newton's second law tells us that the acceleration of the system must be zero and therefore no matter how hard the horse pulls, it can never move the cart.

Q. When a horse pulls a cart, the force that helps the cart move forward is the force exerted by :

Q. A 500 kg horse pulls a cart of mass 1500 kg along a level horizontal road with an acceleration of

1 m / s^{2}

. If the coefficient of sliding friction between the cart and ground is 0.2, then the force exerted by the horse on the cart in forward direction is: Assume limiting friction is acting)

Q. Consider a cart being pulled by a horse with a constant velocity. The horse exerts force

{\to F}_{C / h}

on the cart . (The subscript indicates the force on the cart due to the horse.) The first subscript denotes the body on which the force act and the second due to which it acts.
