Question
Use Newton's third law to explain the forces involved in walking on level ground. According to Newton's third law, with each step the ground applies a forward force on the walker in reaction to the walker's backward force on the ground. the walker's foot exerts a forward force on the walker in reaction to the backward force the foot exerts on the ground. the walker applies a forward force and the ground experiences a backward force in response. O the ground propels the walker forward in reaction to the force of gravity on the walker by the Earth.
