Question

Identify the action and a reaction force is a force that acts in the opposite direction to an action force when a bullet is fired from the gun.

Answer 1

Step 1: Finding the action and reaction force

1. We know that forces always act in pairs and always act in opposite directions is called action force.
2. A reaction force opposes an action force by acting in the opposite direction.
3. When a gun fires a bullet, the gun puts a force on the projectile that propels it forward. This is the force of action.
4. The bullet likewise exerts an equal force on the rifle in the reverse direction.
