Question

a company tests the safety of a variety of vehicles. they measured the force that the vehicle applied to the wall. the vehicle applied a force of 60 n. select the correct statement. the wall applied a force to the vehicle that measured more than 60 n. the wall applied a force to the vehicle that measured 60 n. the wall applied a force to the vehicle that measured less than 60 n.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Newton's third - law

According to Newton's third - law, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Step2: Analyze the forces between vehicle and wall

The vehicle applies a force of 60 N on the wall. The wall applies an equal and opposite force on the vehicle. So the force the wall applies to the vehicle is also 60 N.

Answer:

The wall applied a force to the vehicle that measured 60 N.
