High Impact Kete #1: Force


Force

In the field of physics, force is the push or pull that alters and changes the direction, velocity or shape of an object. There are three laws of force, which are named Newton's Law. Below are the definitions of these laws, and are simplified in my own words.



The first law:

If an object is moving, it will move in a straight line unless affected at an angle by some force; such as wind or gravity.

_

The second law:
The acceleration of an object is the increase of velocity in the same direction as the force acting upon it. 

_


The third law:

The force you apply to the object is the same force applied to your hands as you do so.





To kick the soccer ball, the girl is applying force to it. 
As the soccer ball comes down, it is gravity pulling it.
