3. Starter Activity
Complete True and False activity to demonstrate knowledge gained last week and to introduce forces.
A scalar is a quantity which is describe by both magnitude and direction.
Weight is the quantity of matter a body possesses.
Inertia is the reluctance of the body to move or change its state of motion.
Velocity is the rate of change in distance or body’s movement per unit of time
Momentum is the amount of motion a body possesses and is the product of mass and velocity
Force-time graph: net impulse is positive when an athlete is accelerating
Force-time graph: a runner is at constant velocity when the net impulse is negative
A shot putter performs turns to increase impulse by maximising the time over which a force is applied.

7. Question
Explain, in terms of a player moving towards the ball in tennis, the difference between velocity and acceleration. (3 marks)

8. Answer
Explain, in terms of a player moving towards the ball in tennis, the difference between velocity and acceleration. (3 marks)
A. Velocity = rate of change of displacement/displacement ÷ time;
(Not speed, not distance)
B. How fast/quickly player moves towards ball;
C. Acceleration (not speed) = rate of change of velocity/change in velocity ÷ time (taken to change)/[Vf - Vi] ÷ time/a = !v ÷ t;
D. Push off ground to accelerate (not speed)/change velocity;
E. (Both) have direction/are vectors. 3 marks

9. Factors affecting a force
A force can be described as a ‘push or a pull’
When describing a force you must consider:
Size or magnitude
Direction of force
The position of the force
Activity – five main factors to consider, can you draw them onto the sprinter?

10. Forces acting on a sprinter

11. Forces acting on a sprinter

12. Forces acting on a sprinter
Air resistance
Gravity
Equal and opposite Ground Reaction Force
Friction
Action force of muscular contraction

13. Mini plenary Use your text book to find out
1. The three factors affecting friction
2. The three factors affecting air resistance

14. Newton’s First Law: Law of Inertia
A body will continue in a state of rest
or uniform motion unless acted upon by
an external force. A body has a reluctance
to change in its state of motion.
If a force acts on an object, it will accelerate in the direction of the force.
If an object is given an initial velocity and there are no forces acting on it, the object will continue along its original path in a straight line.

15. Newton’s Second Law: Law of acceleration
The rate of change of momentum of a
body is proportional to the force causing
it and takes place in the direction in
which the force was applied.
In sport mass remains constant therefore mass equates to acceleration.
The greater the force being exerted on an object, the faster the object moves.
A big mass (tennis ball) is harder to accelerate than a smaller mass (table tennis ball).

16. Newton’s Third Law – the Law of action and reaction
For every action there is an equal
and opposite reaction
For every force between two objects there is always an equal but oppositely directed force.
The normal reaction force is
the support force exerted upon
an object which is in contact
with another stable object.
Normal reaction force
Weight

17. Application of the theory
Apply Newton’s three Laws of Motion to the following situations:
A high jumper at take off
A high diver performing a dive
A gymnast performing a vault
A football player taking a penalty
Extension: come up with an example of your own to illustrate your understanding further

20. All are able to complete an examination question to demonstrate knowledge and understanding.
A sprinter uses her calf muscles to push on the blocks at the start of a run. Explain, using Newton’s laws, how this enables her to accelerate forwards out of the blocks. 3 marks

21. A sprinter uses her calf muscles to push on the blocks at the start of a run. Explain, using Newton’s laws, how this enables her to accelerate forwards out of the blocks. 3 marks
Newton’s 1st law - Sprinter remains in a set position on the blocks until a force causes him to change his position
Newton’s 2nd law of motion - if a force is exerted, then this produces an acceleration in the same direction as the force (forwards). – sprinter pushes
Newton’s 3rd law of motion - action and reaction are equal and opposite in direction.
• When the sprinter pushes down and back on the ground.
• The ground pushes up and forward on her.
