Newton's 3rd Law
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is Isaac Newton's Third Law of Motion? | "Every Action has an Equal and Opposite Reaction." |
| What is an example of this law? | A rocket launching. |
| How does this law apply to everyday life? | When an object exerts force on an object, that object exerts an equal force on the first object. |
| How are action and reaction forces related? | The reaction force exerts a force in the opposite direction in which the action force was directed. |
| Can you always detect motion during an action force? | No, you cannot always detect it. |
| Why do action and reaction forces not cancel each other out? | They act on different objects so there is a change in motion. |
| Are action and reaction forces balanced or unbalanced? | They can be either. |
| What happens when two objects exert force on an object with equal force? | The object will not in either direction. |
| What would happen if you caught a ball on roller skates? | The force of the ball will push you backward. |
| If you were in a car traveling at 35mph and suddenly stopped, what would be the action and reaction forces? | The action would be the car stopping, and you lurching forward. |
