Question
- listed below are action forces. tell the reaction force. a. your bottom pushing on your desk seat b. a bat hitting a baseball c. your finger pressing on your phone screen while texting iv. understanding..... label each of the following images/descriptions below as being examples of 1st, 2nd, or 3rd law. then explain your answer! 22. 1st law 2nd law 3rd law explanation: 23. 1st law 2nd law 3rd law explanation: 1st law 2nd law 3rd law explanation:
Step1: Recall Newton's third - law
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Step2: Analyze part a
The action is your bottom pushing on your desk seat. The reaction is the desk seat pushing back on your bottom.
Step3: Analyze part b
The action is a bat hitting a baseball. The reaction is the baseball hitting the bat back.
Step4: Analyze part c
The action is your finger pressing on your phone screen while texting. The reaction is the phone screen pushing back on your finger.
For questions 22 - 23, since no images are provided, we'll assume a general understanding of Newton's laws for explanation purposes.
Newton's first law (law of inertia) states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Newton's second law is \(F = ma\) (force equals mass times acceleration). Newton's third law is the action - reaction law as described above.
If an object is shown moving with a constant velocity with no external forces acting on it, it's an example of the first law. If there is a calculation of force based on mass and acceleration or a description of how acceleration changes with a change in force or mass, it's the second law. If there are two interacting objects with forces being exerted on each other, it's the third law.

c. The phone screen pushing back on your finger.
For 22 - 23: Without images, we can't give specific answers. But if an object is moving with constant velocity and no external forces, it's 1st law. If \(F = ma\) related, it's 2nd law. If action - reaction forces are shown, it's 3rd law.
