A. The boulder’s pull on the earth is much smaller than the earth’s pull on the boulder.

Forces always occur ________________.

D. when velocities are constant

When a cannon fires a cannonball we observe Newton's third law. Which is the reaction force?

B. The cannon is moving forward.

C. The cannonball moving backwards

D. The cannonball moving forward.

A person steps out of the boat and onto the dock. As the person moves forward onto the dock, the boat moves backward. Which statement best describes the backward motion of the boat as the person steps forward?

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

B. Every mass exerts a force on every other mass.

C. An object at rest tends to stay at rest.

D. Friction opposes the motion of an object.

If a horse pulls on a wagon at rest, the wagon pulls back equally as much on the horse. Will the wagon be set into motion?

Yes, because there is a net force acting on the wagon.

No, because the forces cancel each other out

Yes, because there is a time delay between the action and reaction.

Yes, because the horse’s pull on the wagon is larger than the wagon’s pull on the horse.

A student drops a basketball onto the floor. According to Newton's 3rd law, why does the ball bounce?

The floor presses up on the ball

The ball presses down on the floor

How is this an example of Newton’s Third law?

They are both exerting an equal force on each other

Only the ball is using the head

Only the head is pushing the ball

If the person is pushing backwards with the paddle, why do they move forward?

The water pushes back with an equal and opposite force

The person will actually move backwards, they need to paddle the other way

The person is pushing harder than the water

The water pushes back with a greater force than the person

When the person pushes on the brick wall, and the wall pushes back, why does the person move and not the wall?

The wall has more mass so it resists moving more than the person

The person is pushing harder than the wall

The wall is pushing harder than the person

A student kicks a soccer ball. According to Newton's 3rd law, what is the "reaction" in this situation

The soccer ball exerts a force back on the student's foot

The soccer ball flies off into the air

You can hear the soccer ball being kicked

Other students chase after the soccer ball

If the weight of a skydiver is balanced out by an upward force of air resistance on the skydiver then those two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

These two forces do not form a 3rd law pair because they are not two forces between the same two objects.

These two forces form a 3rd law pair because they are equal in magnintude and opposite in direction.

These two forces do not form a 3rd law pair because they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

These two forces form a 3rd law pair because they are two forces acting between the same two objects.

A force is always part of a mutual action that involves another force.

It doesn’t matter which force we call action and which force we call reaction.

Action and reaction forces are not equal in strength.

A rocket is propelled by the impact of exhaust gases against the atmosphere.

The upward force that causes helicopters, birds, and airplanes to fly is called lift.

When a cannonball is fired from a cannon, the force the cannon exerts on the cannonball is exactly equal and opposite to the force the cannonball exerts on the cannon.

The trillion and trillions of interatomic forces that hold a baseball together do play a role accelerating the baseball.

If the action and reaction forces are internal to a system, then the forces cancel and the system does not accelerate.

Whenever one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object always exerts the same amount of force back on the first object.
