THANK YOU SO MUCH

### Understanding Equal and Opposite Forces

In this exercise, we will identify pairs of forces that must be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, even though they are **not** interacting.

#### Question:
Which forces must be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction even though they are **not** interacting partners?

1. The force of Earth pulling on the hammer.
2. The force of the table pushing on the hammer.
3. The force of the hammer pushing on the table.
4. The force of the hammer pulling on Earth.

#### Options:
Select all that apply:

- [ ] (1) and (2)
- [ ] (2) and (3)
- [ ] (3) and (4)
- [ ] (1) and (4)

---

**Explanation of the concepts:**
These choices are based on fundamental concepts of Newton's Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Understanding this will help determine which forces are equal and opposite but not genuine interaction partners in the given context.
