Read each question carefully and provide your best answer. This worksheet will test your understanding of Newton's Third Law of Motion.
1. Newton's Third Law of Motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite .
force
reaction
acceleration
motion
2. When you push against a wall, the wall pushes back on you with an equal and opposite force. This is an example of:
Newton's First Law
Newton's Second Law
Newton's Third Law
Law of Conservation of Energy
3. The two forces in an action-reaction pair are always in magnitude and opposite in .
4. When a rocket takes off, the action force is the rocket expelling gas downward, and the reaction force is the gas pushing the rocket .
5. Action and reaction forces always act on the same object.
True
False
6. Describe a real-world example of Newton's Third Law of Motion in action. Clearly identify the action force and the reaction force.
