ICSE Class 9 Answered
Without using law of conservation of linear momentum, prove newton's tird law ON NUMERICAL OR THEORETICAL BASIS(NOT EXPERIMENTAL BASIS i.e. based on real life examples).

Expert Answer
Consider two bodies of mass m1 and m2
Their total momentum is P = P1 + P2
Now, the net force from Newton's second law is given as
F = dP/dt = dP1/dt + dP2/dt
Now, at the time of contact (this is needed so that third law becomes applicable) no net force acts on the system.
Thus,
dP1/dt + dP2/dt = 0
f1 + f2 = 0
Thus, f1 = -f2
This is Newton's third law.
