Assuming
$$\vec{r_{a}}$$ and $$\vec{r_{b}}$$ is calculated from an inertial frame of reference.
then for any two objects (named a and b) in a system of more than two objects,
Is this the newton's third law,
$$\frac{d^{2}}{dt^{2}}m_{a}\vec{r_{a}}=-\frac{d^{2}}{dt^{2}}m_{b}\vec{r_{b}}$$
i think this cant be right because then this implies
$$\frac{d^{2}}{dt^{2}}m_{i}\vec{r_{i}}=0$$ for every object in that system.
so i think i have misunderstood the law, so my question is can anyone state the law in terms of above variables for n-body system ?
Edit 1 (fix)
fixed a embarrassing mistake d/dt -> d^2/dt^2
thank you
