A three jump is a jump that you do in ice skating. Right handed people: It consists of doing 3 backward crossovers (two your right) then turning to face outwards stepping forwards on your left leg then doing a half turn and landing on your right leg. Left handed people: It consists of doing 3 backward crossovers (two your left) then turning to face outwards stepping forwards on your right leg then doing a half turn and landing on your Left leg.

Give a short example of equal and opposite pairs?

Perhaps forces.When you fire a gun, you have an explosion of gunpowder that ejects the bullet forward at a high velocity. The gun kicks back in an opposite direction from the firing with a force equal to that which expelled the bullet, but in the opposite direction.Another example might be ice skating (without braking). If one person pushes the other backward... the pushing person will also be pushed backward with equal force. Acceleration/velocity, of course would be dependent on the relative weights.
