Explain how the actions of the muscular and skeletal systems show how Newton's Second Law (F=ma) applies to kicking a ball with an emphasis on the more force applied to the "ball" gives it greater acceleration and makes it travel farther.

    Muscles, bones, and joints are some of the most interesting applications of statics. Kicking a ball with a leg acts as a force that moves the ball with an acceleration. This phenomenon uses Newton's second law of motion.

    Newton's second law quantifies the acceleration on a given mass for a given force. Force is proportional to both mass and acceleration. The law states that the net force, ΣF, is ΣF = ma

    Constant acceleration is the result of a constant net force acting on an object. A constant force in the direction of motion, such as that applied by the falling mass in an unbalanced Atwood machine, increases an object's speed.
