Question
Listed below are some examples that you can research and then apply your understanding of Newton’s First Law of Motion: (or you may pick your own)
A bowling ball rolling down the alley
A running back running on the football field toward the end zone
A quarterback at rest on the field
Marathon runner running beyond the finish line
Brakes applied by a bus driver abruptly
A soccer ball at rest on the soccer field
Your presentation should include the following:
The example/idea that you chose is clearly stated
A description of the object either at rest or in motion at the beginning
How Newton’s Law affects your example
Use the rubric in Unit 3 Lesson 11, page 11 as a guide in writing and revising your research presentation.

**Example of Newton’s First Law of Motion**: A soccer ball at rest on the soccer field.
**Description of the Object**: At the beginning, the soccer ball is at rest. It sits on the green grass of the soccer field, not moving unless a force acts upon it.
**Application of Newton’s First Law of Motion**:
Newton’s First Law of Motion states that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net external force.
My example of Newton’s First Law of Motion is a soccer ball at rest on the soccer field, and in the beginning, it is at rest.
Newton’s First Law of Motion affects my example by illustrating that the soccer ball will not move on its own; it requires an external force, such as a player's kick, to initiate its motion. If no force is applied, the soccer ball will continue to remain in its stationary position. This law highlights the importance of force in changing the state of motion of an object, emphasizing that any soccer game begins with the interaction of players and the soccer ball, demonstrating how forces come into play to shift an object from rest to motion.
