Question

select the correct answer. which of newtons laws states that “every action has an equal and opposite reaction”? a. first b. third c. second d. fourth

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The first law is about inertia (an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force). The second law is \(F = ma\) (force equals mass times acceleration). There is no fourth law in Newton's laws of motion.

Answer:

B. third
