Answer:
This means that when you push on a wall, the wall pushes back on you with a force equal in strength to the force you exerted. When one object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts the same size force on the first object

How much force is the wall exerting on the rope?in what direction?
ANSWER:-
- 500 Newton force the wall is exerting on the rope and in the opposite direction of the force by the person. This means that the direction of the force exerting by the wall is in the positive direction.
EXPLANATION:-
- We are given a figure such as a person applying a force f by pulling a rope, so we're given that f, with a force applied by the person on the wall, is equal to (-500) which means opposite direction.
- According to Newton's third law of motion, we have considered it as a negative x axis, whereas the side of the wall will be we positive x axis. So that it would have a centre or origin (o).
- For now we are asked about the force that the wall will exert on the rope, as we know that Newton's third law of motion suggests that force acting on an object will have equal magnitude with opposite direction. So the magnitude of the force exerted by the boy i.e 500 is equal to the magnitude of a force exerted by the wall.
- As we plotted both magnitudes in the opposite direction where the force exerted by the person is negative. Hence, the force exerted by the wall will be positive.
Hence, Hence, the Force exerted by the wall is 500N in a positive direction, which is the opposite direction of the person exerting force.
