Question
which of the following is example of newton’s third law: *
you jump on a trampoline. it springs you back into the air.
a swimmer pushes against a pool wall to begin swimming a lap.
a rocket’s thrust pushes it out of earth’s atmosphere
all of these
Brief Explanations
Newton's Third Law states that for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force.
- When you jump on a trampoline, your weight pushes down on the trampoline (action), and the trampoline exerts an upward force to spring you back (reaction).
- When a swimmer pushes against a pool wall (action), the wall exerts an equal force back on the swimmer, propelling them forward (reaction).
- A rocket's thrust works by expelling fuel downward (action), and the expelled fuel exerts an upward force on the rocket, pushing it upward (reaction).
All scenarios match Newton's Third Law.
