A fish uses its fins to push water backwards. But a A fish uses its fins to push water backwards. But a push on the water will only accelerate the water push on the water will only accelerate the water backwards. According to Newton’s 3backwards. According to Newton’s 3rdrd law, the water law, the water reacts by pushing the fish forwards. Thus the fish is reacts by pushing the fish forwards. Thus the fish is propelled through the water!propelled through the water!

While driving down the road, an While driving down the road, an unfortunate bug strikes the windshield of unfortunate bug strikes the windshield of a bus. Quite obviously, this is a case of a bus. Quite obviously, this is a case of Newton's third law of motion. The bug hit Newton's third law of motion. The bug hit the windshield and the windshield hit the the windshield and the windshield hit the bug. Which of the two forces is greater: bug.

A gun recoils when it is fired. The recoil A gun recoils when it is fired. The recoil is the result of action-reaction force is the result of action-reaction force pairs. As the gases from the gunpowder pairs. As the gases from the gunpowder explosion expand, the explosion expand, the gungun pushes the pushes the bulletbullet forwards and the forwards and the bulletbullet pushes pushes the the gungun backwards. The acceleration of backwards. The acceleration of the recoiling gun is ... the recoiling gun is ...

AnswerAnswer
The force on the gun The force on the gun equals the force on the equals the force on the bullet. Yet, acceleration bullet. Yet, acceleration depends on both force depends on both force and mass. The bullet and mass. The bullet has a greater has a greater acceleration due to the acceleration due to the fact that it has a smaller fact that it has a smaller mass. Remember: mass. Remember: acceleration and mass acceleration and mass are inversely are inversely proportional. proportional.
