Answer 1

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

Explanation: Newton's third law states that whenever one object exerts a force on a second, the second exerts an equal and opposite force on the first. It does not guarantee motion (start, stop, or bounce), only that the reaction force exists.
