ANSWER

It is not possible

Step-by-step explanation

According to Newton's third law, for every action (force), there is always a reaction (reactive force).

This means that forces occur in pairs and so if an object exerts a force on another object, it must feel the same amount of force in return.

Therefore, it is not possible.
