Two persons are applying forces on two opposite sides of a moving cart. The cart still moves with the same speed in the same direction. What do you infer about the magnitudes and direction of the forces applied?

We infer about the magnitudes and direction of the forces applied that:

i. The magnitude of forces will be equal and same.

ii. The forces will act in the opposite direction.

iii. As a result, they cancel out each other and the net effect will become less.
