Newton’s first law:
1. The soccer ball remains at rest until a force (which is the leg of the player) kicks it forwards.

2. The ball, because of inertia, will keep moving forwards until an unbalanced force acts upon it to slow it down or stop it.

3. Because of the air friction, the ball will start to slow down, and it will stop either because of friction with the air or ground,
or because of another force acting upon it, like the goalkeeper stopping it or the net of the goal stopping it.
Newton’s first law:
1. The plane remains at rest until an unbalanced force acts upon it, like the engines or even a high wind that pushes it
forwards.

2. When the plane starts accelerating and takes off everything like the pilots, passengers, or baggage, are pushed backwards while the
plane accelerates because of inertia. The same happens when the plane decelerates but the other way around.

3. Once the plane gets to cruise altitude and maintains a constant speed, because of the forces acting on the plane being
balanced, objects no longer have that inertia that moves them in another direction.
Newton’s
second law
1. The car goes forwards because of a force
pushing it forwards, which is the engine.

2. If we add more mass to the car, like if we

added more people inside it or more
equipment, it would either move slower
with the same force, or move as fast as
before the extra mass was added if we
add more force to the car.

3. If we wanted to slow the car down, and

mass was added to it, a greater force
would be needed so that the car can
slow down as efficiently as without the
extra mass.
Newton’s second
law
1. The ball that is going into the rest of the
balls accelerates with a certain mass and a
certain force.

2. If the ball moving into the rest of the balls

had a greater mass, it may move slower or
quicker because, even though it would
need more force, gravity would have a
greater effect on it, as it would weigh
more.

3. If the ball had a greater mass, apart from

affecting its speed, it would collide with
the rest of the balls with a greater force,
because of the extra mass that the ball
carries.
 Newton’s third law:
1. When you punch a wall, you apply a force
known as action against it, while the wall
applies another force, known as reaction.

2. The reaction force, which is the wall, delivers

the same force to the hand (which is the
reaction force) that the hand applied to it.

3. However, the wall doesn’t move that much

because it is very massive compared to the
hand, so instead of movement, there’s
structural damage to the wall.
 Newton’s third law:
1. As the person jumps on the trampoline, it
applies a force to it, known as action.

2. The trampoline then applies the same force in

the opposite direction to the person jumping,
known as reaction.

3. Because of the trampoline exchanging the

forces with the person jumping, it can keep
making the person bounce by applying an
equal force on the person jumping on it.
