What is Newton's Third Law Of Motion?
100
The ball will float on a point in the water unless an external force is acted on it.
How does Newton's First Law Of Motion apply to water polo?
200
An object in motion will remain in motion, and an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced nonzero net force.
What is Newton's First Law Of Motion?
200
The mass of the ball never changes but if the player throws it with a greater acceleration, it will exert more force. It will travel faster and be harder to stop.
How does Newton's Second Law Of Motion apply to water polo?
300
The greater the mass of the object being accelerated the greater the amount of force needed to accelerate the object.
What is Newton's Second Law Of Motion?
300
The ability of the player to float is based on this. The wight of the player will be equal to the reaction of the water pushing them upwards.
