Which of the following is an example of Newton's third law of motion? an object accelerating toward earth a bouncing ball a floating balloon a satellite orbiting a planet

I believe it's a floating balloon because for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, so the balloon floats up and eventually floats back down.

If the floating balloon is chosen, then the opposite motion (an object accelerating toward earth) would also be true. So both are incorrect because both have to do with unbalanced forces.

A satellite orbiting a planet is an example of the second law of motion.

A bouncing ball is the answer you want. For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction.
