Which of the following are correct statements of Newton's 3rd law?  Choose all that are correct.   Any time an object feels a force (like gravity), it also feels a reaction force (like a table pushing up).     Any time an object exerts a force on a second object, that second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object.     The acceleration of an object is equal to the net force exerted on the object divided by its mass.     If an object is at rest, that means 2 equal and opposite forces are acting on it.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Newton’s third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. For two objects A and B , the force exerted by both objects,

FAB=-FBA
