Questions and Answers

What upward force allows a high jumper to leave the ground?

  • The jumper pulls themselves up.
  • Gravity provides a lift force.
  • The ground accelerates the jumper upwards. (correct)
  • Air pressure pushes the jumper up.
  • What does the interaction between a man and a football illustrate regarding forces?

  • Forces are one-sided during the interaction.
  • The man and the football exert equal and opposite forces on each other. (correct)
  • The football moves without exerting any force back.
  • The man only affects the football's movement.
  • How does Newton's third law relate to a boy kicking a ball?

  • The wall exerts an equal force back on the boy after the kick. (correct)
  • The wall only absorbs the impact without reacting.
  • The boy's foot remains still while the ball moves.
  • The wall pushes the boy causing no effect on the ball.

    Study Notes

    Newton's Third Law

    • The ground pushes on the high jumper, causing the jumper to be propelled upwards
    • Forces always come in pairs, according to Newton's third law
    • For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
    • The football and a man exert equal and opposite forces on each other, demonstrating Newton's third law
    • The Earth and the moon exert gravitational forces on each other, exemplifying this law
    • A boy kicking a ball against a wall exerts a force, the wall exerts an equal and opposite force, reflected in the ball's rebound.
