Newton's third law states that for every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force. An idiot in your class says, "Wow that means everything cancels and nothing ever moves, it is all an illluussion! Wowwwwww" What statement best proves to him he is an idiot.

a) The equal and opposite forces act on different objects
b) If there is even a slight imbalance in the third law there will be a net force causing acceleration
C) he's right, all forces cancel, any motion I have ever seen is wrong
