Answer 6

During a softball game, a shortstop catches a ground ball. The action force is the ball pushing on the glove. What is the reaction force?

the ground pushing on the ball
the fielder pushing on the ball
the glove pushing on the ball
the ball pushing on the ground

Answer 7

*for every action, there must be an opposite reaction.

Answer 8

what does that mean?

Answer 9

that means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. For example, if you push the wall, the wall will exert the same force on you.
