QUESTION:
For each of the following interactions, identify action and reaction forces:
(a) A hammer hits a nail.
(b) Earth gravity pulls down on a book.
(c) A helicopter blade pushes air downward.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 3
For following interaction the action and reaction forces in this experiments are
(a). Action force: The force applied by the hammer on Nail.
Reaction force:the hammer and nail are equal in magnitude but they don't have equal mass. This causes a difference in acceleration a/c to Newton's second law so here reaction force is the nail applies opposite force on hammer.
