Question

A man tried to push a car with a force of 400 N and failed to do so. What is the force applied by the car on the man?​

Answer 1

Here it is given that a force of 400 N is applied by a man to push a car.

We have to find out the force that is applied on man by the car

Now, according to Newton's third law of motion

"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction"

So, when the man applies a force of 400 N on the car, the car will also apply an equal and opposite force on the man

Hence, the car applied a force of 400 N on the man
