The action and reaction forces in any situation will always be equal and opposite.
To understand why, we need to look at Newton's Third Law of Motion. This law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
To determine the action and reaction forces in a given situation, you need to identify the two objects involved and the forces they exert on each other.
For example, let's consider a person pushing a heavy box. The action force is the force exerted by the person on the box, while the reaction force is the force exerted by the box back on the person.
To find the action force, you can measure the force applied by the person using a force sensor or by calculating the force based on the person's mass and acceleration.
To find the reaction force, you can measure the force exerted by the box on the person using another force sensor or by calculating the force based on the box's mass and acceleration.
In this situation, according to Newton's Third Law, the action force exerted by the person on the box will be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the reaction force exerted by the box on the person.
