Examples of Newton's third law of motion are ubiquitous in everyday life. For example, when you jump, your legs apply a force to the ground, and the ground applies and equal and opposite reaction force that propels you into the air. Engineers apply Newton's third law when designing rockets and other projectile devices.

- A swimmer pushes the water backward by his/her hands and in return the water pushes the swimmer forwards, thus enabling him to go forward during swimming.
- A man walking on the ground:While walking, a person pushes the ground in the backward direction, and the ground in return pushes the person in the forward direction, thus making him/her walk.
- A bird while flying pushes the air downwards with the help of its wings. Consistent with Newton’s third law of motion, the air pushes the bird upwards.
- When a person is lying on a bed, his weight is opposed by a reaction force from the bed (assuming it must be there because of Newton’s third law of Motion). In turn, both forces cancel each other out, and the person enjoys the equilibrium position.
