Q: Which of the following statements is true for Newton's Third Law of Motion.
  • A. The force is applied to the same body.
  • B. The force is applied on the same body in the opposite direction.
  • C. The force is applied on different body in opposite direction.
  • D. Force is dependent on distance.
Correct Answer: Option C - Newton Third Law of Motion : According to this law, to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When one objects exert a force (action) on another object, then the second object also exert a force (reaction) on the first object. These two forces are always equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
