  2. Momentum behind horseback riding • Momentum: force or speed of movement. • Can be used to predict the resulting direction of objects after they collide. • As the horse begins to move, the momentum begins to increase and the horse’s acceleration increases.

  4. Newton's 3rd Law • Newton’s 3rd Law: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. • As the horse is galloping, it is pushing on the ground and the ground is pushing back. • If the horse doesn’t make the jump completely its leg will hit the poles and the pole will fall.

  5. Kinetic and Potential Energy • Kinetic Energy: the kinetic energy of an object is the energy which it possesses due to its motion. • The horse has the greatest kinetic energy when the horse lands after the jump. • Potential Energy: potential energy is energy stored in a system of forcefully interacting physical entities. • The horse only has potential energy after the takeoff and has the greatest potential energy at the highest point of the jump.
