You can begin walking across the floor because you push on the floor and the floor pushes back on you.

An airplane pushes back on the air and the air pushes forward on the plane.

Answer 2

$\huge\bf{\underline\pink{Question}}$

State Newton’s third law of motion. Give two examples of Newton’s third law of motion.

$\huge\bf{\underline\red{Answer}}$

Newton’s third law of motion:-

➡️ According to the newton's third law of motion, whenever one body exerts a force on another body, the second body exerts an equal and opposite force on the first body. In other words, to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

➡️ Newton's third law is useful for figuring out which forces are external to a system.

For example:-

➡️ When we 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.

➡️ When we want to move forward on a boat, you paddle by pushing the water backwards, causing you to move forward.
