Explanation: Action and reaction are equal and opposite but they cant cancel eachother because the two forces always act on different objects. Only those two equal and opposite forces can cancel eachother which act on same body simultaneously.

Answer:

According to Newton's Third Law of motion ,

Each and every action has an equal and opposite reaction .

But action and reaction force never cancel each other .

This is because action and reaction act on two different bodies .

Forces can be cancelled only if they act on a single body . If they act on different bodies they do not cancel each other .

So even though action and reaction are equal and opposite , they dont cancel each other .

For example ,

When a book is lying on the table ,

The weight of the book is providing an action force on the table and the table is providing a reaction force on the book .
