Newton’s Third Law of Motion

The horse pulls the cart and the cart pulls the horse in response as per Newton third law. So the big question is, “Don’t the two forces cancel each other? How does the cart accelerate?”

Question

answer the speed of the defendant's car, in m/s.

Plaintiff's speed: 15.0 m/s
Skidmark angle: 58^o
Both car masses are the same.

The plaintiff's car was going eastbound, while the defendant's car was going northbound. They collided and skidded together. The angle is the angle from the east direction.
