Football and Newton's Three Laws of Motion
Newton's first law of motion
In football the strategy is to get the ball down the field and that is when first law kicks in. The defensive player strategy is to stop the person that has the ball. Which Newton's first law states,"A object at rest stays at rest and a object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a unbalanced force". If the man with the ball is the motion and the defensive player is the unbalanced force it acts upon the first law.
Newton's second law of motion
When a kicker kicks the ball he has to use a great amount of force. But that is not the only thing. You have to get the angles right and the acceleration. So the second law states that,"The acceleration of an object depends on mass of the object and the amount of force applied. So if the kicker is the force and the football was the object it relates to football.
Newton's third law of motion
Whenever you tackle someone you feel the force that you applied. Speed and momentum is the most important object to tackling. So this is related to the third law which states," Whenever one object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first. So if the defensive player is the one object and the man with ball is the second object it relates to the third law.
