Question
Can we apply Newton’s third law to the gravitational force? Explain your answer.
✓

Answer

Yes, Newton’s third law of motion holds good for the force of gravitation. This means that when earth exerts a force of attraction on an object, then the object also exerts an equal force on the earth, in the opposite direction.
