Which would BEST describes what occurs when a ball is thrown against a wall?

A) The ball will not bounce off the wall.

B) The ball hits the wall hard enough to bounce off of it.

C) The wall is stronger than the ball and neither exerts any forces.

D) The ball exerts a force on the wall and the wall exerts a force back.

When a ball is thrown against a wall, the ball exerts a force on the wall, and the wall exerts an equal force in the opposite direction back on the ball. (D)

The ball exerts a force on the wall and the wall exerts a force back.

Explanation:

When a ball is thrown against a wall, the ball exerts a force on the wall and the wall exerts a force back. This is due to Newton's third law of motion. According to this law, every action have equal and opposite reaction and both action and reaction forces acts on different object.

In this case, when a ball is thrown against a wall, the wall exerts an equal force on the the ball but in opposite direction. It follows the newton's third law.

Hence, the correct option is (D).
