Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Which of the following statements can be inferred from the above-mentioned law of motion? Statement 1: For every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects., Statement 2: The magnitude of the force on the first object equal the magnitude of the force on the second object., Statement 3: Forces always comes in pairs - equal and opposite action reaction force pairs., Statement 4: Action and its reaction act on two same bodies., Statement 5: Action and its reaction act on two different bodies.

Explanation

Newton's Third Law of Motion states: "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

From this law, we can infer:

1. Statement 1: For every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. (TRUE)
2. Statement 2: The magnitude of the force on the first object equals the magnitude of the force on the second object. (TRUE)
3. Statement 3: Forces always come in pairs - equal and opposite action-reaction force pairs. (TRUE)
4. Statement 4: Action and its reaction act on two same bodies. (FALSE - Action and reaction forces act on different bodies)
5. Statement 5: Action and its reaction act on two different bodies. (TRUE)

So, all statements except Statement 4 can be inferred from Newton's Third Law of Motion.
