according to newtons third law to every action there is equal and opposite reaction but I have a doubt whether action should happen first or the reaction

Expert Answer:
Without action there would be no reaction. For example swimmer has to push water backwards(action force) as a result the water pushes him forward(reaction force) if there is no action force applied by the swimmer to push the water back he will not be able to move forward.
