"If a moving object hits another object, then the second object will push back."

Reason: Newton's third law says forces come in equal and opposite pairs — when one object applies a force on another, the second applies an equal and opposite force back. This does not guarantee any particular motion (they might stick, bounce, or one may not move), only that a reaction force exists.
