a resting soccer ball moving after it is kicked is an example of which of newton's laws?

question 10 options:

1st law

2nd law

3rd law

7) 2,197 kg

The weight of an object on Earth is given by:

where m is the mass of the object and is the acceleration due to gravity. Since we know the weight of the object, W=21,532 N, we can re-arrange the equation to calculate the object's mass:

8) 2,197 kg

Mass is an intrinsec property of an object: it says "how much matter" is contained within an object. Therefore, the mass of an object does not depend on its location: so, the object has the same mass on Earth and on the moon, and so its mass is still the same as the previous exercise, 2,197 kg.

9) 187,500 N

The force exerted on an object is given by Newton's second law:

where m is the mass of the object and a its acceleration. In this problem, and , so the force exerted on the object is

10) 2nd Law

Newton's second law states that an object which is acted upon a force experiences an acceleration given by:

where F is the force and m the mass of the object. As a result, the object accelerates, so if it was at rest, it starts moving.

This is exactly what happens in this example: the ball is initially at rest, but then a force is applied on it (by the kick), so the ball is accelerated and it starts moving.

explanation:

the universal gravitation equation. since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. if the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled.
