Newton's first law states that this ball will stay here until another force affects it.
It also states that the ball will stay in motion until an unbalanced force acts on it.
Motion is defined as the change in position for a particular time interval.
Glide: 2
But what if you wanted to calculate the speed of the soccer ball.
To do this we can find the distance the ball traveled and the time it took to stop.
The formula for this is speed = distance over time, to make this easier we can use a reference point such as the goal or a nearby tree.
Glide: 3
Newton's second law also has many other forms to measure it like speed and velocity
When I kick the ball it creates speed and velocity.
Speed is the just the rate at which something is traveling, velocity is very similar to this but it includes the direction the object is going.
Glide: 4
Displacement is another way to measure only the distance and direction.
Displacement refers to the shortest distance between the object’s two positions
Glide: 5
Similar to a reference point a frame of reference is anything you see while in motion, so when I run down the field a frame of reference could be the people watching the game.
Newton's second law states that when a force is applied to an action it causes the object to accelerate.
Acceleration is the increase or rate of the speed of something like a soccer ball.
Eventually no matter how hard I kick this soccer ball it will stop because of the friction on the ground and the air.
Things become harder to accelerate when they have larger mass, mass is how much matter an object has this is why its easier to move a soccer ball than a goal.
Glide: 6
Finally newton's third law states that for every action there is and equal and opposite reaction.
This is shown when I use my head to hit the ball.
Since my head is applying force to the ball the ball applies the same amount of force back, this is why sometimes after I hit the ball my head hurts.
