  • Newton's Third Law: Force and Reaction - Understanding Opposing Forces
    Here's the breakdown:

    * Newton's Third Law: This law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

    * Force Pairs: When the man pushes on the wall (action), the wall pushes back on him (reaction).

    Therefore:

    * Size: The wall exerts a force of 50 N on the man.

    * Direction: The force exerted by the wall on the man is opposite to the direction he is pushing, meaning it's directed towards him.
