Daniel is trying to determine if one of Newton’s ideas is a law or a theory. The idea that for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction is a fact, based upon numerous experiments, that has never been revised or changed. The idea is based on observations but is not an explanation of those observations. Daniel should determine that this is a law, because it is a fact that does not change. this is a law, because is based on observations. this is a theory, because it does not explain observations. this is a theory, because it is based on numerous experiments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force. ... The third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.
