A polo player hits a ball with a mass of 0.42 kg with a force of 7.35 Newtons.
How does the force the polo player's mallet exerted on the ball compare to the force the ball exerted on the mallet?
A.
The force of the mallet on the ball is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force the ball exerted on the mallet.
B.
The force of the on the mallet is less in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force the ball exerted on the mallet.
C.
The force of the mallet on the ball is equal in magnitude and in the same direction to the force the ball exerted on the mallet.
D.
The force of the mallet on the ball is greater in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force the ball exerted on the mallet.

Newton - THIRD LAW
use Google !!!!!
Al;so go back and find I added to answers to your earlier questions
Ok Cool THANK YOU all
what was the answer?
To answer this question, we need to understand Newton's third law of motion which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
In this scenario, the polo player hits the ball with a force of 7.35 Newtons. According to Newton's third law, the force the polo player's mallet exerts on the ball will be equal in magnitude and in the opposite direction to the force the ball exerts on the mallet.
So, the correct answer is A. The force of the mallet on the ball is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force the ball exerted on the mallet.
