How do bumper cars at an amusement park demonstrate Newton’s third law?(1 point)

If two bumper cars collide with a certain force, then they will move away from each other in opposite directions with a stronger force.
If two bumper cars collide with a certain force, then they will move away from each other in opposite directions with a stronger force.

If two bumper cars collide with a certain force, then one car will transfer its force to the other car and they will move away from each other in opposite directions.
If two bumper cars collide with a certain force, then one car will transfer its force to the other car and they will move away from each other in opposite directions.

If two bumper cars collide with a certain force, then they will move away from each other in opposite directions with the same force.
If two bumper cars collide with a certain force, then they will move away from each other in opposite directions with the same force.

If two bumper cars collide with a certain force, then one car will transfer its force to the other car and they will move together in the same direction.

The correct response that demonstrates Newton’s third law is:

If two bumper cars collide with a certain force, then they will move away from each other in opposite directions with the same force.

This illustrates Newton's third law, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When two bumper cars collide, the force exerted by one car on the other is met with an equal force in the opposite direction from the second car back to the first.
