Newtons 3rd law

• What do Newton's first and second laws of motion indicate about their complexity?

  They are fairly straightforward
• What does Newton's third law of motion state about the forces between two interacting objects?

  The forces are equal and opposite
• Why is it recommended to learn Newton's third law exactly as stated?

  It may be required in the exam
• Why can Newton's third law seem tricky?

  It involves understanding equal and opposite forces
• What is an example of Newton's third law involving a man in a canoe?

  • Man pushes paddle on water
  • Water pushes back on paddle
  • Forces are equal in magnitude, opposite in direction
• How does a skateboarder demonstrate Newton's third law?

  • Skateboarder pushes off skateboard
  • Skateboard moves right
  • Skateboard pushes back on skateboarder
  • Skateboarder moves left
• What happens when a rocket fires according to Newton's third law?

  • Rocket pushes down on exhaust gases
  • Exhaust gases push up on rocket
  • Forces are equal in magnitude, opposite in direction
• How do car wheels demonstrate Newton's third law?

  • Wheel pushes backward on road
  • Road pushes forward on wheel
  • Forces are equal in magnitude, opposite in direction
