A tennis player used a tennis racket to hit a tennis ball with a mass of 0.25 kg with a force of 5.25 Newtons.

How does the force the tennis racket exerted on the tennis ball compare with the force the tennis ball exerted on the tennis racket?

A.

The force of the tennis racket on the tennis ball is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force the tennis ball exerted on the tennis racket.

B.

The force of the tennis racket on the tennis ball is equal in magnitude and in the same direction as the force the tennis ball exerted on the tennis racket.

C.

The force of the tennis racket on the tennis ball is less in magnitude and in the same direction as the force the tennis ball exerted on the tennis racket.

D.

The force of the tennis racket on the tennis ball is greater in magnitude and opposite in direction as the force the tennis ball exerted on the tennis racket.

    The correct answer is A because

    for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

    The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object. The direction of the force on the first object is opposite to the direction of the force on the second object. Forces always come in pairs - equal and opposite action-reaction force pairs.
