PeroK replied to the thread Undergrad Is calling fictitious forces "not real" just about terminology?.That's nearer to what I would say. But, if someone wants to say pushing a wall and the wall pushing back is cause and effect, then I'm... -

Correlation is not the same as causation. I would say that it is possible for some state of affairs to "cause" a Newton's third law... -
PeroK replied to the thread Undergrad Is calling fictitious forces "not real" just about terminology?.I'm not convinced that cause and effect implies a temporal ordering. Google AI, for what it's worth. is happy with the idea that cause... -
