It can be either. Horse-drawn carts are virtually all pulled. Library and shopping carts are pushed.

However, any pulling or pushing force that is exerted includes a pushing force against the ground (i.e. friction).

Is a horse pulling a cart are forces?

There are three forces that are exerted on the horse cart system. They are: weight, pull, and friction.


What force is used to pull a cart?

The force used to pull a cart is typically known as friction. Friction acts in the direction opposite to the motion of the cart, requiring a force to overcome it and move the cart forward. Other forces, such as gravity or applied force, can also be involved depending on the specific situation.


What is pull-push rule?

It is one of Isaac newton's laws, I believe it is the second one. It says that for every force, there is an equal and opposite force. Say you are pulling a cart. If you pull the cart with a force of 10N, the cart pulls on you with a force of 10N (mostly due to friction). If a train hits you with a force of 100,000N, you hit the train with a force of 100,000N; believe it or not.

Is there work done with a girl pulling her cart and why?

Yes, work is done when a girl pulls her cart because work is the transfer of energy resulting from a force acting over a distance. When the girl applies a force to pull the cart, and the cart moves in the direction of the force, work is being done on the cart.

Which force is involved in the motion of bullock cart?

The force involved in the motion of a bullock cart is primarily friction between the wheels and the ground. As the bullocks pull the cart forward, the friction between the wheels and the ground allows for the transfer of kinetic energy to move the cart.


What is the net force if you pull a cart with 6n of force and a friend pushes the cart to the left with 5n of force?

The net force is the difference between the two forces, so it would be 6 N (pulling force) - 5 N (pushing force) = 1 N to the right.


What are the definitions of force and motion?

The answer is like force can be pull or push.Both are force.For example if you are pushing a shopping cart full of milk,that is force from your muscles.It is motion to.


Can a falabella pull a cart?

Yes they can typically pull a small dog cart type horse cart.


If action is always equal to reaction then how can a horse pull a cart?

Even though the cart is pulling on the horse with the same force that the horse is pulling on the cart, the weight of the horse, the way it runs, versus the way wheels move, all add up to make the sum of forces on the system move in the direction of the horse.
