Answer 1

According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that if the wind exerts a force of 8 N on the lawn chair as it pushes it against the fence, the fence will exert an equal and opposite reaction force on the chair.

Therefore, the reaction force that the fence exerts on the chair is 8 N.

So, the correct answer is 8 N.
