Which wave is formed when a bullet fired from a gun?

=it is newtons third law of motion which states=="for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction"==when a gun is fired the bullet moves in the forward direction which is action whereas the gun recoils in the backward direction which is the reaction......................=


When 2 or more forces cancel their effect?

When two forces cancel each other, they are called balanced forces. Nothing happens when balanced forces are involved. Motion and anything else relating to force can only happen when there are unbalanced forces involved. If there are two opposite but unequal forces, then there is a net force. The net force is the difference between the two forces, and it acts in the direction of the strongest force. For example, if there are two people pushing on the same box in opposite directions, and one exerts 10 newtons of force, and the other exerts 15 newtons, then the net force will be 5 newtons, and it will be in the direction of the force applied by the person exerting 15 newtons.


If 2 force act on the object in the same or opposite directions what willbe the net force of the object in 2 cases?

There is no net force OF the object. If the forces act in the same direction, the net force is magnitude of the net force is the sum of the forces and acts in the same direction. If the forces act in opposite directions, the magnitude of the net force will be the difference between their magnitudes and it will act in the direction of the larger of the two forces.


What is it called when two forces go in the opposite direction?

If the forces are equal then the net force is 0. If one force is greater than the other than whatever is having the two forces exerted on it will move in the direction of the greater force's direction. The total force will equal the greater force - lesser force. You can draw it in vectors to help visualize. e.g. F1 <------------------*-------> F2 let's say F1 = 5 newtons and F2 = 2 newtons. The combined force would equal 3 newtons going <- direction.


What does Newton's Third Law says that every force does?

Newtons third law states that when one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body. This means that when something hits something else the item being hit sends a force back on the first object.

What is the impact of negative newtons on the motion of an object?

Negative Newtons can cause an object to slow down or move in the opposite direction of the force applied. This can result in a decrease in speed or a change in the object's direction of motion.


A boy pushing forward on a crate with a force of 100 newtons the reaction force is?

The reaction force is 100 newtons exerted by the crate on the boy in the opposite direction (Newton's third law).


Which of newtons laws explains the achievement of lifting a rocket off the ground and into space?

Newton's Third Law. Equivalent to Conservation of Momentum. By Newton's Third Law, if the gas is pushed out of the rocket, the gas pushes the rocket back, in the opposite direction.


2 horses pull against a rope in the opposite direction with forces of 100 newtons is an example of what?

If each horse is pulling with 100 newtons of force, then this is a balanced force system in a Static State.

What is the unit for air resistance?

The unit for air resistance is Newtons (N), which measures the force exerted by air on an object in the opposite direction of its motion.


What did newton call the force exerted by the second object on a second object?

The equal force in the opposite direction.


How much force is needed to push a force of 100 newtons back?

To push a force of 100 Newtons back, you would need to exert an equal force of 100 Newtons in the opposite direction. This is in accordance with Newton's Third Law of motion, which states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.


How does a balloon-powered race car apply to newtons laws of motion?

A balloon powered car is moves because the balloon pushes out air. Whenever something exerts a force on something else (in other words, the balloon is exerting force on the air), then the object being pushed always exerts an equal and opposite reaction force on the object exerting force on it (in other words, the air exerts force on the balloon). Because the balloon is attached to the car, when the balloon is pushed by the air, the car is pushed. The law that for every force there is an equal and opposite reaction force is Newton's Third Law of Motion.
