A large truck collides head-on with a small car. The car is severely damaged as a result of the collision. According to Newton's third law, how do the forces acting between the truck and car compare during the collision? The magnitude of the force on the truck is smaller than the magnitude of the force on the car. The truck does not exert a force on the car during the collision. The magnitude of the force on the truck is equal to the magnitude of the force on the car. The magnitude of the force on the truck is larger than the magnitude of the force on the car. The car does not exert a force on the truck during the collision.

The law of action and reaction states that when two bodies interact the forces are of equal magnitude, but of the opposite direction, each acts in one of the bodies. Let's analyze each sentence

The magnitude of the force on the truck is smaller than the magnitude of the force on the car. False. the forces are of equal magnitude

The truck does not exert a force on the car during the collision. False. The forces are always in pairs

The magnitude of the force on the truck is equal to the magnitude of the force on the car. True forces are equal magnitude

The magnitude of the force on the truck is larger than the magnitude of the force on the car. False. They are of equal magnitude

The car does not exert a force on the truck during the collision. False forces are in pairs
