third law

• What should you be able to describe by the end of the video on Newton's third law of motion?

  You should be able to describe Newton's third law of motion.
• What does Newton's third law of motion state about the forces two objects exert on each other?

  The forces they exert on each other are equal and opposite.
• Why is it recommended to learn Newton's third law exactly as stated?

  It is likely that you will have to state the law in the exam.
• Why can Newton's third law of motion seem tricky?

  It can seem tricky, but you should not get bogged down by it.
• What is an example of Newton's third law of motion involving a man in a canoe?

  • The man uses a paddle to push on the water.
  • The water pushes back on the paddle.
  • The forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
• How does Newton's third law apply when a skateboarder jumps off a skateboard?

  • The skateboarder applies a push force onto the skateboard.
  • The skateboard moves to the right.
  • The skateboard pushes back on the skateboarder.
  • The skateboarder moves to the left.
• Describe the interaction between a rocket and its exhaust gases according to Newton's third law.

  • The rocket fires, producing a downward push force on the exhaust gases.
  • The exhaust gases exert an equal force on the rocket upwards.
• How does a car's wheel interact with the road according to Newton's third law?

  • The wheel exerts a force in the reverse direction on the road.
  • The road exerts a force in the forward direction on the wheel.
  • The forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
• Where can you find plenty of questions on Newton's third law for revision?

  In the revision workbook linked in the video.
