Newton's third law of motion explains action and reaction forces. The third law states that for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force. Imagine hitting a Baseball. The bat exerts a force on the ball.

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.

Answer this question… If the action force is a player kicking a Soccer ball then what is the reaction force?


Does the reaction force occurs before the action force?

The action and reaction forces occur at the same time.


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.


What is a force opposite to an action?

Reaction Force.


What is the force that is opposite to an action?

The force that is opposite to an action is called a reaction force. According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.


When you applied the action force when did the object apply the reaction force?

According to Newton's third law of motion, when an action force is applied on an object, the object will simultaneously apply a reaction force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction on the object that exerted the action force. This means the reaction force occurs instantaneously when the action force is applied.


What force occurs when you apply an action force'?

a reaction force


What comes first in an action-reaction force?

Action


Can an action force exist without reaction force?

No


What is a force that is opposite to its action?

This force is called reaction.


What action and reaction mean?

Action is the force applied on an object, while reaction is the force exerted by the object in response to the action. According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
