I'm trying to understand the law of collision. Could someone explain it to me in simple terms, possibly with an example or analogy to help me grasp the concept better?

Newton's third law of motion holds a significant place in understanding collisions between objects.

When two objects collide, they are subject to forces that act upon each other.

These forces are characterized by their equal magnitude, meaning they are of the same strength.

Furthermore, these forces are opposite in direction, pushing one object in one way and the other in the opposite direction.

The result of these forces is often a change in momentum for both objects involved.
