the concept's application here is very simple. As we walk we exert a certain amount of force on the Earth and governed by the 3rd law the Earth exerts the equal amount of force back on our foot (opposite direction) but as the Earth is very massive to observe the push that we exert only the force the it exerts it felt this added to friction provides the stability of the feet while in movement

∙ 14y agoNewton's 3rd law:
For every action, there is a equal and opposite reaction.
You exert a force on the ground with every step you take, and since the ground doesn't cave in and you fall right through, the ground must then exert a equal force to oppose the force you exert.

∙ 13y agoits as simple as this... you push against the ground, the ground pushes you back.
(for every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction!!!)

What is the exertion of a force on an object called that produces motion in the direction of a force?
Work occurs when a force causes an object to move in the direction of the force.
What units are work measured in?
Joules or newtons*meters
A boy exerts an average force of 65N when he lifts a box 1.2 meters How much work does he do?
Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.
How much work is being done if you move a rock 5 meters with a force of 6 newtons?
Work = force x distance = (6) x (3) = 18 joules.
What transfer energy through motion?
Work the transfer of energy as the result of motion is called work. Motion is when one object's distance from another is changing.
Why scientist reject newtons third law of motion?
The third law is rejected by scientists, it has been proven to work, and has been accepted by the scientific community.
What kind of work is done when a force opposes an object's motion watts newtons or molecular?
The answer is newtons
Do Laws of motion and gravity work together?
yes, since newtons law
How does a rocket work on basis of Newton's third law of motion?
bla bla bla
Who discovered the earth and moon stay in orbit?
It was first fully explained by Newtons theory of gravity and laws of motion, but the theory built on previous work by Kepler.
What is the exertion of a force on an object called that produces motion in the direction of a force?
Work occurs when a force causes an object to move in the direction of the force.
Do newtons laws work for outer space?
NO
What does newtons third law mean?
Newton's third law, for every action there is an equal and opposite Reaction.This means in that the vector forces sum to zero, mathematically this means:Action + Re-Action = 0.
On which law or theorem does a rocket work on?
Newton's third law of motion - simplified into the sentence, "To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction."
What units are work measured in?
Joules or newtons*meters

A truck pull a trailer 100 m while exerting a force of 480 newtons what is the work done by the truck?
The work done by a truck pulling a trailer for a distance of 100 M while exerting a force of 480 newtons is 48000 newtons.
