Q. Consider the following two statements A and B and identify the correct choice in the given choices:
A) Centripetal force, centrifugal force are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction but they are not force of action and force of reaction respectively because both act on same body.
B ) Centrifugal force is a pseudo force in both inertial frame of reference and non inertial frame of reference.

Q. According to the third law of motion, action and reaction :

(a) always act on the same body but in opposite directions
(b) always act on different bodies in opposite directions
(c) have same magnitudes and directions

Statement 3 $:$ Forces always come in pairs - equal and opposite action-reaction force pairs.

Statement 4 $:$ Force and reaction act on the same body.

Statement 5 $:$ Force and reaction act on two different bodies.

Which of the following statements is/are true?
