Use Newton's 1st law to describe how a golfball starts and stops moving when hit by a club.
The force of the swing acts on the ball to make it move, the force of friction between the ball the air and the ground bring it to a stop.

hr
Acceleration, distance, speed, time
Use Newtons 3rd law to describe what happens when a tennis ball is thrown at a brick wall. Identify the forces at work in the scenario
The tennis ball bounces off of the wall due to a force equal and opposite pushing back on it. The tennis ball enacts a force on the wall, the wall enacts a force on the ball
What is the speed of a drone that can travel 1.7km in 4 minutes. Give the speed in m/s
7.08m/s
Identify the forces and their directions acting on a catapult as it launches a marble down a hallway. Identify the forces on the marble just as it is being launched.
Identify 2 force pairs in the scenario
Catapult:
Gravity downward, normal upward, force of launch to the left, friction/AR to the left
Marble: gravity downward, air resistance opposite of motion, force of launch to the right
Gravity + normal force, Force of launch on both marble and catapult
