Softball
Softball Started with a fight with two people, one had a glove and one had a broom stick. When the glove got thrown and the stick it hid it like a ball and a bat in Softball or Baseball. Old names of Softball- indoor baseball, mush ball, pumpkin ball and kitten ball. Softball was introduced to the Olympics in 1996. It was removed in 2012 and 2016. You need to have certain equipment to play like the ball, bat, glove, cleats, facemask, helmet, catcher's gear, and sometimes sunglasses. The rules of softball are each team has nine players, two teams, seven innings. The innings are split into two sections, top and bottom. Innings are each team bats once then switches until three strikes and the batter goes out. You get someone out by tagging them. Each team hits the ball and must run to all bases without being tagged. They must get back to home base then they get a score. A home run can be if you hit the ball over the bases and the field.
Newton's 1st law is an object in rest stays in rest. An object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. A balanced force is when forces come together and they don't move. An unbalanced force is a force that is not equal and the object moves. Newton’s first law exists in softball. When you are standing and waiting to hit the ball with the bat or the catcher wating to catch the ball, that is a balanced force. The ball and bat is an object at rest no longer at rest until Gravity applied and dragged. An example of when an object is in motion and stops is when a ball is moving and someone stops it. That could be when someone catches it, when drag pulls it back, or when gravity pulls it down. A bat can stop when someone drops it after hitting the ball.
Newton’s second law is force equals mass time acceleration. (Force) Is something or someone that pushes or pulls. (Mass) what it is made of. (Acceleration) Is pointing or showing where it is going. When you throw the Softball, or hit the ball with the bat,or, running to each base and pushing against the ground. Force is something or someone that pushes or pulls.
Mass is what something is made of and the Softball is an example of Mass and the Softball is made out of koarks and the bat is made out of wood, plastic, and sometimes metal.Acceleration is how long it takes to go fast or slow and one direction or another. When you are running to each base and trying not to get tagged by the other team.It is what changes in movement like when the pitcher throws the ball when she or he goes back and forth. As well as when they hit the ball with the bat. How fast it is and the ball can feel how fast it is going like when it hits the glove and feels how hard it is. If a persian is running to each bass,it depends on how big or small a persian is because there is wheat and how heavy they are to tell how fast they are going.
Newton’s third law is every action has an equal and opposite action. Action is any tip of motion in the begging scene. In Softball you, through the ball, when you run to each bass you push on the ground. Reaction is the motion of the after seen. Action could be someone hitting the ball with the bat. Reaction, and the ball flying in the sky. Action is when someone runs to each bass. Reaction, that someone might get to the other basses. Action is when someone throws the ball. The reaction could be that it might fly through the sky.
