Which example illustrates Newton's third law?
A. A person pushes a wheelbarrow, causing it to move forward.
O B. More mass is added to a wheelbarrow, and a larger force is
required to move it.
O C. The force of a wheelbarrow on the ground is equal to the force of
the ground on the wheelbarrow.
D. A wheelbarrow accelerates more quickly when more force is used
to push it.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A person pushes a wheelbarrow, causing it to move forward.

Explanation:

This question involves the concepts of Newton's third law of motion and reaction force.

The example which illustrates Newton's Third Law of motion is "C. The force of a wheelbarrow on the ground is equal to the force of

the ground on the wheelbarrow.".

NEWTON'S THIRD LAW  OF MOTION

Newton's thrid law of motion states that for every action force there is an equal but opposite reaction force. Hence, the law means that whenever a force is applied, it must generate a reaction force which is equal in magnitude of the applied force but it must have the direction that is opposite to the direction of the applied force.

In part C the force applied by the wheel barrow on the ground is its weight. And as a reaction force the ground applies a normal force on the wheelbarrow with equal magnitude as the weight.
