Student A states that when she sits down on a chair, she is exerting a force on the chair and that is all that happens. Student B states that when she sits on a chair, the chair is actually exerting a force back on her in reaction to her force exerted upon the chair. Which student is correct and why? A.
Student A is correct because Newton’s 1st Law of Motion states that if the chair exerted a force on the student, her motion would change.

B.
Student A is correct because Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite action and the chair does not show any action.

C.
Student B is correct because Newton’s 1st Law of Motion states that if the chair were to be exerting a force on the student, her motion would change.

D.
Student B is correct because Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite action and the chair’s action counteracts the student’s so that neither move.
