on the wall is much smaller than the force that
the wall exerted on me which is why the wall
doesn’t move.
C. No, I didn’t exert a force on the wall. If I
had exerted a force on the wall, the wall would
have moved.
D. No, I didn’t exert a force on the wall. You
can’t exert forces on solid objects like walls.
My Answer and Explanation:
My Answer and Explanation:
B. Newton’s third law says that the
A. Newton’s Third Law.
force one object exerts on a second
object is equal in magnitude and
opposite in direction to the force that
the second object exerts on the first
object. The force that the mosquito
exerts on the truck is exactly equal in
magnitude to the force that the truck
exerts on the mosquito.
