Question

a cars tires push backward on the road to move forward. explain how newtons third law applies in this situation. the car moves because the engine creates energy. the road pushes forward on the tires with an equal and opposite force, causing the car to move. the tires only push backward, and the car moves due to friction. the car moves because of gravity pulling it forward.

Explanation:

Newton's Third Law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In this situation, when the car's tires push backward on the road (action force), the road pushes forward on the tires (reaction force) with an equal and opposite force. This reaction force is what causes the car to move forward.

Answer:

The road pushes forward on the tires with an equal and opposite force, causing the car to move.
