Explanation:
When a ball bounces it comes off some surface, say a wall or ground. In this process, the ball has two forces acting on it, one force would be the gravitational force which would act on the ball and the other would be the impulse(high magnitude of force in short duration of time) by the surface striking the ball which is the opposing force. So we can conclude that the supporting force and opposing forces are equal we can say that it is a sub-case of 3rd law of Newton which states Every action force has an equal and opposite reaction
