200

This Law applies to the following scenario:


Two cars collide and both cars exert a force on each other, resulting in damage.

Newton's Third Law

200

Newton's First Law states that an object in motion will stay in motion (or an object at rest will stay at rest) until acted upon by a(n) ____________________.

This Law applies to the following scenario:


A human does not move when pushing against a wall.

Newton's Third Law

500

A block sits on a smooth surface. One person pushes the block to the left with a force of 500 N, and one person pushes the block to the right with a force of 100 N. 

Does the block move?

Yes. It moves to the left.
