Answer:

There are many forces involved in the game of football. These are: Force of Gravity, Normal Force, Force of Friction, and Applied Force. Force of Gravity applies to football when the football is thrown or kicked, when a player jumps in the air to avoid a tackle or catch a ball, and is constantly being applied.

Step-by-step explanation:

How physics is used in football?

When you throw a football across the yard to your friend, you are using physics. You make adjustments for all the factors, such as distance, wind and the weight of the ball. The farther away your friend is, the harder you have to throw the ball, or the steeper the angle of your throw.
