Newton’s 3rd Law

Check Your Understanding 1 - Answer
The forces are equal! For every action, there is an equal
reaction. The fact that the firefly splatters only means that
with its smaller mass, it is less able to withstand the larger
acceleration resulting from the interaction.

A rifle recoils when it is fired as a result of action-reaction
force pairs. A gunpowder explosion creates hot gases that
expand outward allowing the rifle to push forward on the
bullet. The bullet pushes backwards upon the rifle. The
acceleration of the recoiling rifle when compared with that
of the bullet is:
a. greater.
b. smaller.
c. the same.

Correct Answer: B
The force on the rifle equals the force on the bullet. Yet,
acceleration depends on both force and mass.
𝐹Ԧ = 𝑚𝑎Ԧ
The bullet has a greater acceleration due to the fact that it
has a smaller mass.
