Are you considered down where the knee hits or where the ball hits in football?

What matters is where the ball is when any part of your body besides your foot or hand touch the ground. Or if you get caught and pushed back, it's the point of maximum forward progress, on the theory that the play ended when you started to be pushed backwards.

Why is it when you stub your toe you fall forward?

This can be explained with Newton's First Law of motion, Inertia. An object in motion tends to stay in motion until a force acts on it. When you are walking, your entire body is moving forward. But if your toe hits an object, only it will stop. So the rest of your body will continue moving forward until you stop yourself. (hopefully before you hit the ground)


According to newton's law how does a car headrest help to guard against whiplash in a rearend collision?

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. When something hits you from behind that is travelling even slightly faster then you, the energy comming from all of the 4000lbs in motion that hit you is transfered into your car. Your car lurches forward transfering some of that energy into your body. A body at rest stays at rest. Your head was stationary until your body lurched forward with the rest of your car. Your head has to catch up to the rest of your body and you end up damaging the soft tissue in and around your head neck and shoulders. Get hit hard enough and you can break your neck. If your head is against the head rest, the head rest will move your head forward at the same time as the rest of your body is moved forward by the seat. This will keep your head from snapping backwards.

What is the 'tuck rule'?

The tuck rule applies when a quarterback starts a throwing motion and then decides not to throw and attempts to 'tuck' the ball back into his body to keep possession. Should the quarterback lose control of the ball while in the tucking motion and the ball hits the ground, the play is considered an incomplete pass as opposed to a fumble.The tuck rule is defined in Rule 3, Section 21, Article 2, Note 2 of the NFL Official Rules and is defined below:"When a player is holding the ball to pass it forward, any intentional forward movement of his hand starts a forward pass, even if the player loses possession of the ball as he is attempting to tuck it back toward his body. Also, if the player has tucked the ball into his body and then loses possession, it is a fumble."
