Solution

The correct option is B

Act on two diffrent bodies


  1. Action and reaction forces are always equal and opposite.
  2. According to Newton's third law, there is an equal (in size) and opposite (in direction) reaction force for every action force.
  3. Forces always come in pairs known as action-reaction force pairs.
  4. The action and reaction force always act on different objects.

Hence, option B is correct.
