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.

SteveAn example of equal and opposite pairs is Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. For instance, when a person pushes against a wall with a certain force (action), the wall pushes back with an equal force in the opposite direction (reaction).
