    Force
    Is there any object or phenomena on which only one force is acting? In a simple manner I want to know the examples on which only one force is acting.

    This is homework. Based on your textbook you read... what do you think the answer is and why? We will help you with your assignment but we will not do it for you.

    Third law "To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction." I think is that on earth everything experiences minimum 2 force at a time that is gravitational and one which is simply opposite to it. I am confused! I don't think that there's anything which which experience single force.

    There are no examples. 3rd law.

Can the force of an elastic band be equated to a certain poundage of force? [ 2 Answers ]

This seems like a simple yes, but here is my confusion. A band snaps back faster than an object would free fall. So even if a stretched band was 20 pounds of force, it is pulling at a higher velocity than a twenty pound weight. For example if you do an arm curl with a 20 pounds weight, it...
