Golf
The Affects of Newton's 1st Law in Golf.
Golf Ball At RestThis Golf Ball is at rest because forces such as the upward thrust of the ground and gravity which are acting upon it are balanced.
Forces Acting on a Golf Ball |
Golf Ball HitThis golf ball is not at rest and accelerating because the club which has hit the golf ball has created enough force to propel the ball forward. The ball will not move unless the forces acting on the ball are unbalanced and the forward thrust has a greater force than the golf ball's drag.
