Solution
The correct option is A B exerts 10N force on A towards West
From Newton's third law of motion, "Every action have equal and opposite reaction".Here, Body A is exerting 10 N force on B towards east. (Action force)hence Body B will apply same amount of reaction force ie 10 N on A in direction opposite of east ie in west.Option A
From Newton's third law of motion, "Every action have equal and opposite reaction".
Here, Body A is exerting 10 N force on B towards east. (Action force)
hence Body B will apply same amount of reaction force ie 10 N on A in direction opposite of east ie in west.
Option A
