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

Reason: Newton's third law states that forces come in equal and opposite pairs — if object A exerts a force on B, B exerts an equal and opposite force on A. It does not guarantee motion (the second object might not move), nor that both objects stop.
