1. when two cars get into an accident and end up in locations not close to an accexample of newtons ______ lawa. 1stb. 2ndc. 3rdd. 4th22. which direction does friction act with respect to motion?a. the same direction as the objectb. it pulls it downc. the opposite direction as the objectd. friction does not occur between objects

Explanation:

Question 21

Newton's 3rd Law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In a car accident, the force one car exerts on the other (action) results in an equal and opposite force (reaction) that causes them to move to different locations, which fits Newton's 3rd Law. Newton's 1st Law is about inertia, and 2nd about force and acceleration; there's no 4th law in the standard Newton's laws.

Friction is a force that opposes the relative motion of an object. So, it acts in the opposite direction to the object's motion. Option a is incorrect (friction opposes, not same direction). Option b is about gravity (pulling down), not friction. Option d is wrong as friction occurs between surfaces in contact.

Answer:

c. 3rd
