Question

Newton's third law states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
So, if we push a box, it will push back at us with the same magnitude of force we used to push it. That means that the net force is 0. Then how will the box move?
(with explanation)

Answer 1

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, forces always act in equal but opposite pairs. Another way of saying this is for every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction. 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.
