No, they are always the same. That is what Newton's third law states.

How does action reaction forces apply to softball?
the ball exerts a force on the bat creating action and in turn you apply a force that is greater than the action force. this is called the reaction force.
What is it called when a force is equal in strength but opposite in direction to an action force?
It is called a reaction force. The question you have asked is paraphrase of Newton's third law of motion. Action and reaction are always equal but opposite in direction.
How can there be an unbalanced force on an object if every action has an equal and opposite reaction?
"action/reaction" does not mean " force". "Applying force" is an action, not the force itself. So, applying force will create a reaction, which may or may not balance the applied force.
Does the reaction force occurs before the action force?
The action and reaction forces occur at the same time.
If the action force is a player kicking a Soccer ball then what is the reaction force?
Answer this question… If the action force is a player kicking a Soccer ball then what is the reaction force?
What is a force opposite to an action?
Reaction Force.
Do action and reaction act on same body?
The force acting on an object "A" from outside is action force , and the reaction force is the force exerted by A to the outside object . Therefore, it is obvious that action force and the corresponding reaction force cannot act on one and the same body.
Does a reaction force occur before or after the action force?
It occurs simultaneously with the action force.
Which law states that force always come in pairs?
Newton's Third law: Action and Reaction forces.
Action reaction force pairs act on what?
All Forces! For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction."The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object. The direction of the force on the first object is opposite to the direction of the force on the second object. Forces always come in pairs - equal and opposite action-reaction force pairs"
When do action and reaction forces cancel out each other?
Well in a single action-reaction pair, they cannot cancel out! The action and reaction forces act on different bodies. Lets say that we have a football. I kick it with 200 N of force. That is the action force, so the reaction force must be 200N(in the opposite direction) as well. The key here is that the reaction force did not act on the football, but on your foot! So the net force of the football is still 200 N in the direction I kicked it!Hope this helps some,-Sk Inventor
What force occurs when you apply an action force'?
a reaction force
