Question

Examples when a force changes the direction of motion

Answer 1

If an object changes direction, it is accelerating. Newton's second law says that if you apply a force to an object, the direction in which the object accelerates is the same as thedirection of the force. You can change the direction of an object without changing its speed.

Answer 2

If an object changes direction, it is accelerating. Newton's second law says that if you apply a forceto an object, the direction in which the object accelerates is the same as the direction of theforce. You can change thedirection of an object withoutchanging its speed
example... Baseball: Pitcher sends ball towards home plate, batter applies force with bat against ball, ball goes in new direction.Football: QB throws football upward at an angle, the force of gravity pull on the football, curving it’s path down to the ground (where hopefully, someone catches it).
