a tow truck is towing a car. if the tow truck stops abruptly and the car collides with it, what is the relation between the forces on both vehicles? Use one law of motion in your answer.
I am confused. Is i the first law or third? Because the 1st shows the car not stopping and colliding but the third shows the car colliding and then being bumbed backward.

The forces are equal. Third law.
it is the first law of motion because inertia is acting on the toy truck is experiencing inertia. Newton's first law is called the law of inertia.
It seems to be more of a first law subjects of inertia. When the tow truck stops, the car it's towing is continuing in it's motion, which causes it to keep moving forward. When the car crashes into the tow truck, the unbalanced force of the truck stops the car from going farther
