Newton’s Third Law of Motion –Action and Reaction
For every force, there is an equal and opposite force.

7.1 Forces and InteractionsA force is always part of a mutual action that
involves another force.Interaction – A mutual action between one
thing and anotherHammer and nailFan

7.2 Newton’s Third LawNewton’s third law states that whenever one
object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object.
One force is called the action force. The other is called the reaction force.

7.3 Identifying Action and ReactionFalling ballAction: Object A exerts a force on object B.Reaction: Object B exerts a force on object A.To identify a pair of action – reaction forces,
first identify the interacting objects A and B, and if the action is A on B, the reaction is B on A.

7.4 Action and Reaction on Different Masses

A given force exerted on a small mass produces a greater acceleration than the same forces exerted on a large mass.

7.5 Defining SystemsIf action reaction forces are equal and
opposite, don’t they always cancel each other?

Action and reaction forces do not cancel each other when either of the forces is external to the system being considered.

7.5 Defining SystemsEqual and opposite (balanced) forces applied
to the same object are balanced.Newton’s third law involves equal and
opposite forces applied to different objects.

7.6 The Horse-Cart ProblemRead “Horse Sense” cartoon (figure 7.14) on
page 115.If the horse in the horse-cart system pushes
against the ground with greater force than it pulls on the cart, there is a net force on the horse, and the horse-cart system accelerates.

7.7 Action Equals ReactionFor every interaction between things, there is
always a pair of oppositely directed forces that are equal in strength.
“If you push hard on the world, the world pushes hard on you. If you touch the world gently, the world will touch you gently in return.”
