Newton's Third Law

Newton's Third Law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that when one object exerts a force on another, the second object exerts a force of equal strength in the opposite direction on the first object. For example, when you jump off a small boat, you push down on the boat, and as a result, the boat pushes you up into the air while moving backward. This principle helps explain many everyday phenomena, from walking and swimming to how rockets launch into space.
