1. When a person pushes against a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal force in the opposite direction. This pair of action and reaction forces allows the person to exert a force on the wall and prevents them from passing through it.
2. When a rocket engine expels hot gases downward, the gases exert an equal and opposite force on the rocket, propelling it upward. This pair of action and reaction forces allows the rocket to overcome gravity and achieve lift-off.
3. When a person jumps off a diving board, their feet exert a downward force on the board, causing the board to exert an equal and opposite force upward on the person. This pair of action and reaction forces allows the person to launch themselves into the air.
4. When a car accelerates forward, the tires exert a backward force on the road, causing the road to exert an equal and opposite force forward on the car. This pair of action and reaction forces allows the car to move forward.
5. When a person swims in water, their arms push against the water, causing the water to push back with an equal force. This pair of action and reaction forces allows the person to propel themselves through the water.

1. Action: You push against a wall, Reaction: The wall pushes back against you
Effect: You don't move, since the forces are balanced.
2. Action: A car accelerates, Reaction: The ground pushes back against the car's wheels
Effect: The car moves forward, since the reaction force is greater than the friction force.
3. Action: A swimmer pushes backward against the water, Reaction: The water pushes forward against the swimmer
Effect: The swimmer moves forward, since the reaction force is greater than the drag force.
4. Action: A rocket engine burns fuel and expels hot gases backward, Reaction: The hot gases push forward against the rocket
Effect: The rocket moves forward, since the reaction force is greater than the gravitational force pulling it down.
5. Action: A person jumps up from the ground, Reaction: The ground pushes up against the person's feet
Effect: The person rises into the air, since the reaction force is greater than the gravitational force pulling him down.
Effect: You don't move, since the forces are balanced.
