    Newton's third law is that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

    A Damage is not a part of physics, at least I don't think it is.

    B Is just downright wrong. If anything, the smaller mass will be pushed forward with the heavier mass.

    C Sounds correct

    D It' s wrong, because the masses are not equal, or else they would stop.
