The picture that I chose this time was one of a UH fan running in a referee fat suit holding two pumpkins during a relay race they had during half time. This picture relates to what we’re learning in physics because it’s an example of Newton’s Second Law of Motion, which the acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to the mass of the object. As you can see, the runner is wearing an oversized costume while holding two large pumpkins that makes their usual mass increase. That’s why during the relay both of the competitors weren’t running as fast as they probably could because of the increased mass.
Just like carrying a lot bags while rushing to your class to get there on time. It does take much more energy.
