General Science - Physics (Basics)
According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, when you push a wall, the wall:
ADoes not exert any force back on you.
BExerts a force only if it moves.
CExerts a force greater than the force you apply.
DExerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on you.
Step-by-Step Solution
  1. Step 1: Identify the concept

    The question tests understanding of Newton's Third Law of Motion.
  2. Step 2: Apply the concept

    Newton's Third Law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. So, the wall exerts an equal and opposite force on you.
  3. Final Answer:

    Exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on you. → Option D
  4. Quick Check:

    Newton's Third Law = Action equals reaction ✅
Quick Trick: Action and reaction forces are always equal and opposite.
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Thinking the wall exerts no force or only if it moves.
