When a ball is kicked at its side it begins to spin around in its place according to the location of the kick. If it is kicked at the side and a bit towards the bottom the ball rises up in the air while spinning on its own axis. In the beginning it will fly exactly in the direction of the kick, and as it slows down due to friction with the air, the spinning motion will cause the air on one side to move faster than that on the other side and because of the Magnus effect the ball will then change its direction and will turn either left or right, depending on the side it was kicked. (6)One of the most basic plays in a soccer game is a simple ground pass and Newton's Second Law describes the motion of this pass. A passing kick uses the inside of
