Newton’s third law: law of action and reaction

Example of the law


Newton's third law talks about that every action of force on a body has a reaction of
equal magnitude but in opposite sense to the applied force. In the photo we can see
how the swimming girl propels herself underwater in a wall with a horizontal force
that pushes her to the left, as a consequence in the wall of the pool there is an
opposite force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction to the swimmer
graphically explaining Newton's third law.

Explain how this law is applied in Engineering

An application of Newton's third law applied in engineering is the safety sensor, it


has the application of keeping the occupant in place in the event of an accident or
collision. Newton's third law tells us that it is outside the shareholder corresponds to
a reaction force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction, in which we can
conclude that the seat belt pushes us in the opposite direction to the force of the
impact of the vehicle with any another artifact.
