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 forces described in Statement $1$ cancel each other.

  • A
    Statement $1$ is true,Statement $2$ is true,Statement $2$ is the correct explanation of Statement $1$.
  • B
    Statement $1$ is false,Statement $2$ is true.
  • C
    Statement $1$ is true,Statement $2$ is false.
  • D
    Statement $1$ is true,Statement $2$ is true,Statement $2$ is not the correct explanation of Statement $1$.
