When an object hit another, molecular bonds are forced to leave each other(tear) Inner dynamic of it come from Kinetic energy which was provided by Newton's third law. F=m*a.
What if there is no third law.
Nothing can be damaged physically by crash or hit. If you punch of an object, no acceleration force. At the moment of hit, there is no deceleration force too which causes damage. Let say gravity pulls 1 ton iron downward. it falls however acceleration of iron is at light speed? or faster.(there is no unlimited speed)
When it hits, no deceleration force to damage. It's like a photon. It would not has any weight so gravity somehow has link to 3rd law of Newton. World has constant acceleration 9.81
Solar sail is the way of pushing force of photons and black hole swallows the light. They are under the influence of Newton's 3rd law of it so they have a mass.
If gravity pull masses, it also pulls photons. World pulls photons. Gravity bends the light. Actual question is what causes to 3rd law of Newton.
