Best Answer

When a bat hits a ball the velocity and direction change radically. A force has to be exerted on the ball by the bat for acceleration to occur. This demonstrates Newton's second law f is equal to mass times acceleration.

What are some examples of hockey and newtons laws?

All the three Newtons laws of motion is applicable in the game of hockey. The ball stays where it is unless it is hit and given a force. The acceleration in the ball is proportional to the force given to it through the stick by the player. The ball when rebounds on the goal post is as per the third law of motion. As the stick, the ball and the post are rigid materials there is not much loss due to absorption.

What do newtons laws have to do with lacrosse?

Newtons laws have to do with lacrosse when (in guys lacrosse) you push the other player, which relates to newtons 2nd law, the larger the mass the harder the acceleration. Also, newtons 1st law involves throwing and catching a ball, newtons law says and object in motion will stay in motion until acted upon by an outside force. The object in motion is the ball and the outside force is the other person catching it, stopping the motion. Newtons third law relates to lacrosse when you make a shot and hit the post causing it to bounce off. The 3rd law states for every action theres an equal and opposite reaction. The reaction is the ball flying off the post.

It is Newton's Third Law of Motion: Action-Reaction. I hope my answer helped you.


When a tennis player practice by hitting the ball against the wallwhich of newtons laws of motion is the player making use of?

When a tennis player practices by hitting a ball against a wall the player is making use of Newton's Third Law. According to Newton's Third Law, whenever one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object, These two forces are called action and reaction forces. Back to the question, the tennis player is making use of Newton's Third Law because when he is hitting a ball against the wall, he is exerting a force. However without the wall exerting an equal and opposite force on the ball, it would be impossible for the ball to bounce back and the player to continue hitting the ball against the wall which is why the player is making use of Newton's Third Law.
