Question

According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, what happens when two objects of unequal masses collide?


A.
The object with the smaller mass will continue forward due to inertia.


B.
The object with the larger mass will have greater damage.


C.
They will both make a sudden stop.


D.
They will push away from each other in proportion to their masses.

Answer 1

Newton's third law is that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
A is just downright wrong. If anything, the smaller mass will be pushed forward with the heavier mass.
B. Damage is not a part of physics, at least I don't think it is.
C is wrong, because the masses are not equal, or else they would stop.
D sounds correct.

Answer 2

Its D
