This is almost three times largerthan the weight force <strong>and</strong> so the skater would feel much heavier than usual.4950 a Cb One force acts on the floor <strong>and</strong> the other force acts on the ball. These forces are equal inmagnitude as described in Newton’s third law.Heinemann Physics 12(3e)Copyright © Pearson Education Australia 2008Teacher’s Resource <strong>and</strong> Assessment Disk(a division of Pearson Australia Group Pty Ltd) ISBN 978144250126316
