Best Answer

It depends on which conditions you are considering. If a tow truck stays then a force is the same for the car and truck. If it is moving forward or backward then the force which is effecting the truck is more because it has to spend some work to move. To understand this process I were you I would draw force diagram and check different conditions of movement.

A truck is towing a car whose mass is one quarter that of the truck The force exerted by the truck on the car is 6000 N The force exerted by the car on the truck is?

According to Newton's 3rd law of motion, to every action, there is equal and opposite reaction. Therefore, car will exert equal and opposite force on the truck. The truck is pulling the car and therefore, car also will pull the truck. Thus, direction of forces are opposite. Magnitudes of the forces will be equal.

Example for newton's thrid law of motion?

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.Example: The flying motion of birds is a good example of the Newton's third law. The wings push the air downwards. In turn the air reacts by pushing the wings (and therefore the bird) upwards. The size of the force on the air equals the size of the force on the bird; the direction of the force on the air which is downwards is opposite the direction of the force on the bird which is upward. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Tricky Question: Consider what happens when a small car collides with a heavy truck. Does the truck exert more force on the car, or does the car exert more force on the truck? Answer: Neither. They both exert the same amount of force on each other (Newton's Third Law). The car's acceleration is more dramatic because the same force is being applied to a smaller mass.


How much force does a wall exert on a 2 ton truck going 10mph?

If the wall does not topple or bend or shake(whatever movement), it exerts the same amount of force as the truck exerts on the wall according to Newtonian Laws. So, 10mph=16kmh, 16x2000=32000(newtons).
