The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding Newton's Third Law of Motion, we need to analyze the options provided in relation to the law itself. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Newton's Third Law of Motion**: According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that forces always come in pairs. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A**: "Always act on the same body." - This is incorrect because action and reaction forces act on two different bodies. - **Option B**: "Always act on different bodies in opposite direction." - This is correct. The action force acts on one body, and the reaction force acts on a different body, and they are in opposite directions. - **Option C**: "Have the same magnitude and direction." - This is incorrect. While the forces are equal in magnitude, they are in opposite directions, not the same direction. - **Option D**: "Act on either body at normal to each other." - This is incorrect. The action and reaction forces are not necessarily at right angles to each other; they are in opposite directions. 3. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis of the options, the correct answer is **Option B**: "Always act on different bodies in opposite direction." ### Final Answer: The correct option is **B**: "Always act on different bodies in opposite direction." ---

According to the law of reflection:

According to the third law of motion, when we push on an object, the object pushes back on us with an equal and opposite force. If the object is a massive truck parked along the roadside, it will probably not move. A student justifies this by answering that the two opposite and equal forces cancel each other. Comment on this logic and explain why the truck does not move.
