    Thrust is a reaction force described quantitatively by Newton’s second and third laws. When a system expels or accelerates mass in one direction‚ the accelerated mass will cause a force of equal magnitude but opposite direction on that system. The force applied on a surface in a direction perpendicular or normal to the surface is called thrust.

He examined the reflection that stared back at him with a look

    Michael Richards The article I chose is called “Empty Promises‚ Empty Cradles”. This case involves fake adoptions.
