Answer:

Reaction force

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton´s 3rd law says that every force exerted in nature has an equal and opposite force.

For example here, when Al exerts force on Ben, Ben exerts the same amount of force (30N) on Al.

Al exerts the action force and Ben exerts the reaction force.
