Newton's Third Law States that Every Action Has an Equal and Opposite Reaction. To stop or slow down an object, a force must be applied in the direction opposite to that of the object's motion. Exerting a force results in an equal force in the opposite direction (like the recoil a person feels when firing a gun)
