At one instant of time the car and truck both have an acceleration of 3.5 m/s2. Which of the following statements is true? Defend the choice with an explanation using concepts associated with Newton's Laws.

a.) The car exerts a force on the truck, but truck doesn't exert a force on the car.

b.) The car exerts a larger force on truck than the truck exerts on the car.

c.) The car exerts the same amount of force on truck as the truck exerts on the car.

d.) The truck exerts a larger force on car than the car exerts on the truck.

e.) The truck exerts a force on the car, but car doesn't exert a force on the truck.
