You just stated the 3rd law of newton which states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
This basically means that anything you do has to be reacted upon back. even more simply put, if an action has to take place (like jumping from a boat) then an equal force of action acting in the opposite direction also has to take place (the boat moves back).

Adding a force acting in one direction to a force acting in another direction is the same as anewton?

What happens when an unbalanced force is applied to an object at rest?
It moves the object in the direction of the force. If a force is balanced, it means that a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction is acting upon the same object. If there isn't an equal and opposite force acting on an object, it moves it.
When you stand on level ground the normal force is equal to your what?
The key here is that you're standing on levelground. You should recall the basic principle that net forces change motion. Since your motion is not changing relative to the earth (You're standing still), there must be no net force acting on you. In other words, all forces acting on you must cancel out. If you weigh 100 kilograms, then the downward force of gravity is equal to 980 Newtons in the downward direction. If the only other force acting on you is the normal force, then to cancel out the gravitational force, the normal force must be equal and opposite, or 980 Newtons in the upward direction.
A force acting on an object does no work if?
the force is not in the direction of the objects motion.
What force other than gravity is pushing on a rock when it sinks?
The "buoyant" force is acting on it, in the vertically upward direction. That force is equal to the weight of the water that would be in the volume of the rock if the rock weren't there.
What offsets an action force?
A force of equal magnitude, acting in the opposite direction.
What is the upwars force acting on an object?
The upward force acting on an object is the normal force. It is equal in magnitude, but opposite in direction to the object's weight.
What is a direction of impulse?
impulse is equal to force which is acting on the body and ti me in small interval which is equal to momentum.so impulse is equal to change in momentum and direction of impulse is consider the direction of force and change in momentum.
A force that is opposite to the direction of motion?
Inertia is a property of matter that makes it harder to move, so that is probably what you are thinking of, but technically, forces do not oppose motion. Depending upon the direction in which a force is applied, one force can oppose another force that is acting in an opposite direction, but forces are not opposed to motion as such.
What is the resultant force of a number of balanced force acting on body?
The resultant force of a number of balanced forces acting on a body is zero force. The reason is because any force in one direction is always canceled out by another equal force but in the opposite direction. This is what is meant by balanced forces. For every force in the positive direction, there is also an equal negative force in the negative direction. So the forces all add up to Zero. No net force at all.
What is resultant force of number of balanced forces acting on a body?
The resultant force of a number of balanced forces acting on a body is zero force. The reason is because any force in one direction is always canceled out by another equal force but in the opposite direction. This is what is meant by balanced forces. For every force in the positive direction, there is also an equal negative force in the negative direction. So the forces all add up to Zero. No net force at all.
Which of newtons law is related to transfer of momentum when a bat strike a ball?
for every force, there is equal force acting in the opposite direction
Can equal forces in opposite direction change an objects motion?
If the force is acting in the opposite direction to the movement, the object will slow down and then accelerate in the direction of the force. Negative for
How do you find force when given a constant speed and force of friction?
If the speed is constant, then the group of forces acting on the object is balanced. So the portion of the force acting in the direction of the motion must be equal and opposite to the force of friction.
Adding a force acting in one direction to a force acting in another direction is the same as anewton?

When two forces act on an object in the same direction the resultant force is equal to the?
The equation is a+b=c. If two forces act on an object in the same direction (a and b) then the net force ( c ) is equal to sum of the two acting forces.
What happens when an unbalanced force is applied to an object at rest?
It moves the object in the direction of the force. If a force is balanced, it means that a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction is acting upon the same object. If there isn't an equal and opposite force acting on an object, it moves it.
