This question has Statement 1 and Statement 2 . Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements. Statement 1: If you push on a cart being pulled by a horse so that it does not move, the cart pushes you back with an equal and opposite force. Statement 2: The cart does not move because the force described in statement 1 cancel each other.

Options

  1. AStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.
  2. BStatement 1 is false, Statement 2 is true.
  3. CStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
  4. DStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement 1.

Correct answer

A. Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.

Step-by-step solution

According to newton third law of motion i.e. every action is associated with equal and opposite reaction.
