according to newton's third law, every action has equal and opposite reaction. in this scenario of making a jump from the boat onto a dock, as i jump my feet in contact with the boat push the boat in backward direction. hence the action force is the push by my feet on the boat. the boat reacts by applying a reaction force on my feet pushing the feet in forward direction. hence reaction force here is the force by the boat on the feet. due to the reaction force of the boat on feet, i am pushed in forward direction to reach the the dock.

What do astronomers mean by light pollution?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

a. Light pollution refers to light used for human activities that brightens the sky and hinders astronomical observations.

Explanation:

Light pollution is due to the excessive and misdirected use of artificial light. Light bulbs are often design in an incorrect way, since a great part of its light is not completely directed to the ground and an important percentage is emitted to the sky in where will be scattered and reflected back to ground by the particles in the atmosphere. That brings as an effect a sky glow, therefore the visibility of astronomical objects will be extremely reduce.  

Hence, professional astronomical research and amateur observations will be affected. Light pollution has a negative impact on bird migration at night and in the health of difference species, humans also.
