Answer 1

According to Newton’s third law of motion, the statement that is always correct is:

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

This statement reflects the essence of Newton's third law, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that when one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal force in the opposite direction on the first object.
