Newton’s third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction acting on different bodies. This implies the existence of the action-reaction force pair. That is, for every action force created an equal and opposite reaction force will be created. The walking of a man on the ground can be explained with Newton’s third law of motion. During walking on the ground, the man creates an action force on the ground in the backward direction during each step, while the ground creates a reaction force pushing the man forward enabling him to walk.
