Newtons Laws

Who is Sir Isaac Newton?

Sir Isaac Newton is a man that was born December 25 1642. He was a man that was interested in how and why things move and he also wanted to found out how.

Explain the 3 Laws

The law of inertia - The first law is that if there is a object that is still like a ball, it won't move until other object forces upon it.



The law of acceleration - The second law is that if there was a heavier ball which is still and you get a harder ball and hit it it will then make a bigger and faster acceleration.




The law of Action/Reaction - The law of action and reaction is that if you would to throw a ball against the wall all it will do is just bounce back.


Inertia Ball

The game that we were playing was called inertia ball, during the game the 3 laws were included, the way we showed the laws was when we had to throw different sizes and weighted balls against a big blue bouncy ball. The first law was shown when the` ball was hit from the other team which made the ball go in a different direction and it went fast. The second law was shown when someone throw the basketball and it made the ball go even faster than when you throw a lighter ball such as the tennis ball. The last law was shown by when someone went to trow the ball (that was the action) and the ball that was thrown rebounded and came back to my team. (reaction)

Balance and Stability

• What are the three parts of balance and stability?

The three parts of balance and stability are centre of gravity, line of gravity, base of support.

• How can someone increase their balance and/or stability?

By spreading your legs, like basically widening your base of support. Also you can increase it by lowering your body. And also make sure the line of gravity is inside the base of support.

• Describe your task from the start of the poses to the end of the Slides. Talk about what you enjoyed and what you found difficult.

What I enjoyed the most was when we had to try out a pose but with my own class mate, and what I found difficult was when I was trying to do a pose but it was really hard because the one we were doing as a group was really hard. And also today I learned that by spreading yours legs your base of support widens.

Muscles (

• What are the three types of muscles? Give examples?

The three muscle are cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle and the smooth muscle. The cardiac is a heart muscle, this is one of the main muscles out of all muscles, only because it helps the heart to beat as it beats.the skeletal muscle is a muscle that is connected to the skeleton to form a part of the mechanical system which moves the limbs and also other parts of the body. The smooth muscle are the muscles that are found in organs such as your intestines, these muscles are the muscles that constantly move.

• Describe what agonist and antagonist muscles are

Agonist and antagonist muscles are muscles that contract and relax. So what that is is that the agonist muscle
is the muscle that shortens when you left your arm up, and when you put it down the antagonist begins to get
longer which means it is extending back to the normal place how it was.    

• What are some movements in the body and examples of the movement in a sport?

A movement that you would wanna use during a sport is a knee extension, for example you can extend your knee by participating in rugby, like running real fast or kicking during the game. Another movement that you would wanna use in a sport is the elbow extension, for this one you can use during a sport called basketball, for only bouncing the ball, shooting the ball to the basket and also to pass the ball around to the team.    

• Choose one activity we have completed in class and describe what your task was.

One activity that helped me revise for my task was kahoot, that helped me by remembering all the things that I have leaned about bones and muscles. What we had to do was try and remember the last things that we have learned and also answer them.
