Question 3

Question 5

Which is NOT true about a football and football boots? A the sole has a much broader area than the studs so the pressure is increased and the boot does not sink into the ground too easily B the studs have a small contact area compared to the sole, to increase the pressure, so they penetrate the ground easily C if the temperature rises during a match, the plastic of the ball becomes softer and the gas pressure rises D the more air that is pumped into a football, the greater the gas pressure
