Question 21 Mark
Use Newton's second law to explain the following:
While catching a fast moving ball, we always pull our hands backwards.
Answer
While catching a fast moving ball, we always pull our hands backwards to increase reaction time so force experienced would decrease.

Question 221 Mark
A boy pushes a wall with a force of 30 N towards east. What force is exerted by the wall on the boy?
Answer
According to Newton's third law, every action has equal and opposite reaction so force exerted by the wall on the boy is 30 N.

Question 231 Mark
Two equal and opposite forces act on a moving body. How is its motion affected?
Answer
As these forces are balanced so they will not affect the motion and motion of the body will remain unaffected.
