Question

21. Newton's third law of motion shows that

a) each force acts in the same direction

b) acceleration varies inversly as the force

c) acceleration varies directly as the mass

D) forces always act in pairs

Definition Definition Fundamental law of forces which states: “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." In other words, whenever one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body exerts an oppositely directed force of equal magnitude on the first body. It is also called the “action-reaction law” and was defined by Sir Isaac Newton.
