Abstract

Two forces, due to internal action and reaction, with points of application in relative motion are shown to be different even if they are applied to material points in contact. The action and reaction principle holds, in the case of steady-state, relative motion, if the resultants of the forces acting on each of the two interacting bodies are considered. For a nonsteadystate problem the principle does not hold even for the resultants of the forces.
