What happens to a balloon when the air is released?

Back

The balloon goes up.

Why do we accelerate forward when starting to run?

Back

The striking foot pushes backward against the ground, and the friction with the ground provides an equal and opposite force forward.

Front

What occurs when someone jumps off a wakeboard?

Back

The wakeboard travels in the opposite direction due to the equal and opposite force.

Front

What is an example of action and reaction forces in everyday life?

Back

When you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with equal force.

Front

How does friction relate to Newton's Third Law?

Back

Friction provides the necessary force for motion in the opposite direction when an object pushes against a surface.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and force in Newton's Third Law?

Back

The mass of an object affects the amount of force it can exert and the force it experiences in reaction.

Front

Can you give an example of Newton's Third Law in sports?

Back

When a swimmer pushes water backward, they move forward due to the equal and opposite reaction.
