One or more external forces are exerted on each object enclosed in a dashed box shown in the figures below. Identify the reaction to each of these forces. (Assume that (a), (b) and (c) occur on Earth while (d), (e) and (f) occur far from any outside gravitational influences. Select all that apply.)Six figures each show an arrow, representing a force, acting on an object, where the object is outlined in a dashed box. Figures (a) - (c) show contact forces. Figures (d) - (f) show field forces.
