Newton's third law states "For every action the is an equal and opposite reaction. for example: when two skaters are coming toward each at the same direction but exert opposite forces when in contact. although they are in the same direction there acceleration is much different

There is no motion when forces acting on an object are?

An object at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by an external force - newtons 1st law of motion. It will stay at rest If no force is applied. Also if equal and opposite forces are applied (balanced) to a resting object it will remain at rest also - every action has an equal and opposite reaction - newtons 3rd law of motion


What keeps an object in motion?

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force, as described by Newton's first law of motion. In the absence of any external forces, an object will continue moving at a constant velocity in a straight line due to inertia.


How does a rocket represent newtons 3rd law of motion?

A rocket represents Newton's 3rd law of motion by demonstrating that for every action (the force of the rocket pushing exhaust gases downward), there is an equal and opposite reaction (the force pushing the rocket upwards). This is why the rocket propels itself upwards as it expels gases downwards.


How rockets are related to the newtons 3rd law of motion?

Rockets follow Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When a rocket engine expels hot gases at high speeds, the force of the gases pushing downward is met with an equal and opposite reaction force that propels the rocket upward. This allows rockets to generate thrust and lift off into space.


If a karate chop delivers a blow of 4000N to a board that breaks what is the force that acts upon the hand?

4000 Newtons Newtons 3rd Law- every force applied has an egual and opposite reaction force so 4000n to the board=4000n force to the hand

What are the Newtons laws?

1st law: the law of Inertia states an object in motion will remain in motion and an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. 2nd law: force, motion and acceleration are related. 3rd law: for every action there is an equal or opposite reaction


What do newtons laws have to do with lacrosse?

Newtons laws have to do with lacrosse when (in guys lacrosse) you push the other player, which relates to newtons 2nd law, the larger the mass the harder the acceleration. Also, newtons 1st law involves throwing and catching a ball, newtons law says and object in motion will stay in motion until acted upon by an outside force. The object in motion is the ball and the outside force is the other person catching it, stopping the motion. Newtons third law relates to lacrosse when you make a shot and hit the post causing it to bounce off. The 3rd law states for every action theres an equal and opposite reaction. The reaction is the ball flying off the post.

What is newtons 2nd law in simplest terms?

Newton's third law of motion is "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction." When you sit down in a chair, the chair must provide an equal and opposite reaction or it would collapse.


How does egg drop project apply to newtons 3rd law?

the second law of motion states the relationship between force, mass and acceleration. acceleration= force/mass
