Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Force is applied by us on the ground when we walk, and the ground applies reaction force on our feet so that we can move forward. This is the consequence of Newton’s third law of motion which states, “every action has an equal and opposite reaction.” When we walk, our feet come in contact with the ground and the ground exerts a backward frictional force due to which we will not slip while walking and can walk easily.
