State Newton's third law of motion. Give one application of Newton's third law of motion
Answers
Answer:
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.
for example to illustrate this law-When a man jumps out from a boat,the boat moves backwards.This is due to the fact that to step out of the boat, the man presses the boat with his foot in the backward direction.The push of the man on the boat is not fixed and is floating, it moves backwards due to the action force exerted by the man.
Newton's third law of motion states that whenever one object exerts a force on a second object the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object ✓
It states that to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction for action and reaction are equal and opposite..
From the word action we mean the initial force applied by the first body on the second body. From the word reaction with amine the force applied by the second body in response to the force of the first body.
Applications:-
It becomes difficult to walk on sandy beach because when we push the sand with our feet the sand yields. Thus it does not react back with the same force.
when a boatman pushes the sand with a pole the bank offers an equal and opposite reaction which makes the boat move.
