Because of Newton's 3rd law, if you push on a wall with, let's say, 10 N, the wall will, by definition of the law, push back on you with 10N. The forces are balanced and you don't move backwards because the forces "cancel out" because they are equal and opposite, and if Fnet=0, we now acceleration must be 0.

Do All actions have opposite reactions that cause acceleration?
according to Newton's third law, every action has an opposite reaction. However, this does not always result in acceleration. As a counterexample, consider pushing on a sturdy wall. You are pushing (that's the "action"). The "reaction" is the wall pushing back on you (if it didn't push back, you would fall through the wall). But since the forces are balanced, nothing accelerates.
Why doesn't a wall move when you push it?
The pushing force exerted by physical human effort against the wall is not enough! If the pushing force becomes greater than the weight of the wall held down by the earth's gravity, then the wall will topple. A mechanical digger is able to exert a greater side force then a human, and will topple (demolish) the wall.
When you push against a wall with your fingers they bend because they experience a force Identify this force?
you push on the wall and the wall pushes back on you with opposite and equal force.
Why is it that when you push a wall it will not move?
because objects move when proper force is acted upon them which works on moving and changing these objects direction.
How do you push somebody on poptropica?
I don't think dat u can push another player if that's what you mean but if you can push something (a trashcan or wall) then walk up 2 it and push in the direction that u want 2 move it :)
How possible for a force to act for a long time and yet does no work?
For example : when we push a wall it doesn't move anywhere I think you don't know the equation for work Work =force* distance For something to work it should move too then there is no work done In the example we push the wall yet it doesn't move to a distance So no work done
What muscle push hard against the wall?
muscle that push hard to wall
Why dont plant cells undergo osmotic lysis?
unlike animal cells, plant cells have a cell wall that is sturdy enough to prevent it from bursting when there is too much water in the cell
Why is it that no matter how stronger you push the wall the wall still standing in?

How sturdy are TV wall mounts?
TV wall mounts are meant to be very sturdy and are suppose to hold up large heavy televisions. Therefore they have to be steady. Most can hold up to 50 pounds.
If you push a wall with a force of 200 N with what force does the wall push back?
200 N
What is he definition of work?
Work is the product of a force and the distance through which it acts in the direction of the force. In order for work to be done, the object must move in the direction of the force. If you push on a brick wall until you exhaust yourself and the wall doesn't move, you have not done any work. If you push on a box and it moves in the direction that you are pushing it, you have done work.
If you stand next to a wall on a frictionless skateboard and push the wall with a force of 40 N how hard does the wall push on you?
