Forces in nature always occur in
Correct answer: D. Pair
- A. Triplet
- B. Quadrupled
- C. Isolation
- D. Pair
Explanation
This is a fundamental principle in physics known as Newton's Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that forces always occur in pairs, acting on two different objects.For example, when you push a box, you exert a force on the box (the action), and the box exerts an equal and opposite force back on you (the reaction).

About Force and Motion
Displacement, velocity and acceleration describe motion, including the horizontal and vertical components of projectile motion. The chapter connects these quantities with Newton's laws, momentum and impulse, then applies conservation of momentum to collisions, distinguishing elastic collisions from inelastic ones.
