The video explains Newton's Third Law, which states that forces between two interacting objects are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. It illustrates this with examples, such as pushing a box, and discusses how mass affects movement. The video also connects this to Newton's Second Law, explaining that acceleration depends on force and mass. The video concludes with a call to action.
