When one jumps, how does he/she manage to exert greater force on their ground than their weight? Also, what is normal force and the reaction force (are they the same thing?) and by newton's third law, shouldn't the reaction(weight) when we are standing on the ground that the ground exerts on us send us flying above the ground- why doesn't the law apply here? Finally, when we drop a hard stone on the ground why doesn't it bounce? Plus, why is the force exerted by the stone on the ground greater than its weight?
