EX1. So,if you kick a ball, you need to exert
great amount of force so that the ball will
However, the Second Law gives us an
exact relationship between force, mass,
and acceleration. It can be expressed as a
mathematical equation:
FORCE = MASS times ACCELERATION
Answer = 50 newtons
For every action there
is an equal and
opposite re-action.
This means that for every force there
is a reaction force that is equal in
size, but opposite in direction. That is
to say that whenever an object
pushes another object it gets pushed
back in the opposite direction equally
hard.
The rocket's action is to push down on the
ground with the force of its powerful
engines, and the reaction is that the ground
pushes the rocket upwards with an equal
force.

Flying gracefully
through the air, birds
depend on Newton’s
third law of motion. As
the birds push down on
the air with their wings,
the air pushes their
wings up and gives
them lift.
