The more force applied to the football the more acceleration. Kicking or throwing the ball harder makes it move faster and cover more distance.

Answer:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that a force on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration ( F = ma ).

The football then exerts an equal amount of force in the opposite direction on the kicker's foot.

Everything in football that has a mass and acceleration will have a force.
