A student pushes against a tree with a force of 10 newtons (N). The tree does not move. What is the amount of force exerted by the tree on the student?

1) 0 N
2) 5 N
3) 10 N
4) 20 N


Sagot :

10 newtons (N). If the tree had less, it would be pushed. If it had more, it would push the kid (not possible).

The  amount of force exerted by the tree on the student is 10 N

Given that,

  • A student pushes against a tree with a force of 10 newtons (N). The tree does not move.

Based on this, we can say that

  • The amount of force should be same as each & every action should be equivalent & in the opposite reaction as the newton third law of motion.

Therefore we can conclude that The  amount of force exerted by the tree on the student is 10 N
