How to Operate
In 1687, Newton published "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy", summarizing Newton's three laws of motion. Among them, the third law of motion (ie, the law of reaction):
The action and reaction forces between two interacting particles are always equal in magnitude, opposite in direction, and act on the same straight line.
A common statement of Newton's Third Law of Motion-Force and Acceleration is that the action and reaction forces between two interacting objects are always equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, and act on the same straight line. This law was proposed by Isaac Newton in 1687 in his book Principles of Natural Philosophy. Newton's third law of motion and the first and second laws together form Newton's laws of motion, which describe the basic laws of motion in classical mechanics.
