Question

Newton's second law of motion examples in everyday life

Answer 1

1- Kicking a ball

When we kick a ball, we exert force in a specific direction, which is the direction in which it will travel.

In addition, the stronger that ball is kicked, the stronger the force we put on it and the further away it will go.

2- Capture the ball by hand

Professional athletes move their hands back once they catch the ball as it provides the ball more time to lose its speed, and in turn apply less force on its part.

3- Push a car

For example, pushing a supermarket cart with twice as much force produces twice as much acceleration.

4- Pushing cars

On the other hand, pushing two supermarket trolleys with the same force produces half the acceleration, because this varies inversely.
