What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?

Back

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Can a force be exerted by one object on itself?

Back

No, a force cannot be exerted by one object on itself.

Front

What is an example of an action-reaction force pair?

Back

A swimmer pushes the water backwards (action), and the water pushes the swimmer forward (reaction).

In the context of Newton's Third Law, what happens when a bowling ball rolls into a bowling pin?

Back

The bowling pin pushes back on the bowling ball.

Front

What is an action-reaction force pair in the context of a cannon and cannonball?

Back

The cannon pushes on the cannonball (action), and the cannonball pushes back on the cannon (reaction).

Front

What is the significance of action-reaction force pairs in everyday life?

Back

They explain how objects interact with each other, such as walking, swimming, and driving.

Front

What is an example of an action-reaction force pair when a person walks?

Back

The person's feet push backward on the ground (action), and the ground pushes forward on the person's feet (reaction).

Front

How do action-reaction forces relate to motion?

Back

They are responsible for the changes in motion of objects when they interact.

Front

What is the relationship between action and reaction forces?

Back

They are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Front

Can action-reaction forces cancel each other out?

Back

No, they act on different objects and do not cancel each other out.
