Questions and Answers

Why is it more difficult for opponents to push or pull football linemen out of position?

  • Because linemen have larger mass and therefore more inertia (correct)
  • Because linemen are faster than their opponents
  • Because linemen have smaller mass and therefore less inertia
  • Because linemen have less friction with the ground
  • What role does the large mass of football linemen play in resisting being pushed or pulled?

  • It has no effect on their ability to resist being moved
  • It decreases resistance by making them easier to move
  • It provides more resistance due to increased inertia (correct)
  • It increases the speed at which they can be moved
  • What characteristic of football linemen makes them difficult to displace from their position?

  • Their speed and quick reflexes
  • Their flexibility and ability to bend easily
  • Their small mass and resulting agility
  • Their large mass and resulting inertia (correct)
  • How does the large mass of football linemen affect the force required to move them?
