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 into the fence, the fence exerts an equal and opposite reaction force of 8 N on the lawn chair.

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