Answer:
Statement 1 is true but statement 2 is false.
Explanation:
Action and reaction always operate on different bodies and hence cannot cancel each other. When two equal and opposite forces act on the same body, they cancel each other.
A truck parked on the side of the road has a heavy weight and generates greater friction between the tyres and the ground than the force applied. As a result, the truck will only move if a force greater than the friction force is applied to it.
