IN BUNTING AND HITTING
In the picture the baseball player is bunting the baseball. The act of bunting can be an example explaining or showing Newton's 2nd Law of Motion. Newton's 2nd Law of Motion states: the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force on the object and indirectly proportional to the mass of the object. This law is seen in bunting because if the batter holds the bat still, like they are supposed to, the net force on the object is very little; the batter is not or trying very hard not to exert any additional force on the ball. The baseball itself is also very light, its mass is not very big at all. The little amount of force applied, which the net force is directly proportional to the acceleration of the ball, paired with the balls small mass, which is indirectly proportional to the acceleration of the ball, makes the ball stay very close to home base. it has very little acceleration because the net force on the object and the mass of the object are also very little; this proves or shows as an example of Newton's 2nd Law of Motion.
